On August 5, 1949, a team of fifteen elite Smokejumpers from the U.S. Forest Service faced a catastrophic firestorm in Montana, resulting in one of the worst disasters in the agency's history. In "Young Men & Fire," Norman Maclean draws on fourteen years of research to explore the Mann Gulch tragedy, delving into themes of honor, loss, and the resilience of the human spirit. This award-winning work presents a sobering account of the event and its aftermath, reflecting on both the courage of those involved and the impact of such a profound loss.
