Fernanda
Santos is chief of the Phoenix Bureau of The
New York Times and the author of a new book, The Fire Line: The Story of the Granite Mountain Hotshots and One of
the Deadliest Days in American Firefighting, just published by Flatiron Books/MacMillan. I
had the opportunity to interview her for The Huffington Post last year which
you may read here.
Santos
is coming to Los Angeles in celebration of The
Fire Line with a reading at Barnes & Noble in The Grove at Farmers
Market.
From the publisher: “The Fire Line: The Story of the Granite
Mountain Hotshots and One of the Deadliest Days in American Firefighting ...
[is] a riveting, pulse-pounding narrative of an unthinkable disaster, a
remarkable group of men, and the raging wildfires that threaten our country's
treasured wild lands.”
Praise for The
Fire Line:
“In
Fernanda Santos’ expert hands, the story of 19 men and a raging wildfire
unfolds as a riveting, pulse-pounding account of an American tragedy; and also
as a meditation on manhood, brotherhood and family love. The Fire Line is a great and deeply moving book about courageous
men and women.” —Héctor Tobar
