it was amazing

bookshelves: read-2019, nonfiction

A fascinating look at the fire that destroyed a massive collection of irreplaceable materials, a brief history of libraries, a mystery surrounding the unsolved case, a love letter to firefighters, and the author's own re-discovery of libraries. It's SO MUCH packed in one well-written book.
