This "two volumes in one" book deals with extreme opposites on the tragedy scene in Wisconsin."Fire" refers to the Great Peshtigo Fire of Peshtigo, Wisconsin. You may or may not have heard of it. It occurred the same night as the Great Chicago Fire. Obviously, we now know which conflagration received more press. The fact is, more people died, more property was destroyed, and a larger area was burned in the Peshtigo Fire than in Chicago."Ice" refers to tragedies on the Great Lakes around Wisconsin.If you can get a copy of this book, I urge you to do so.
