Fiery Trial

The Great Fire of 1881 that swept Michigan’s Thumb left more in its wake than death and destruction; it left permanently implanted impressions in the minds and hearts of the survivors. This New Edition of James H. Lincoln and James L. Donahue’s noteworthy work examines the tragedy for a new century. Originally published in 1984, Fiery Trial is a testimony to the hearty pioneers who survived one of the greatest disasters in Michigan’s history and rebuilt their towns, farms, homes, and lives.
