Historic LoDo: In The Worst Hard Time, bestselling author Timothy Egan put the environmental disaster of the Dust Bowl at the center of a rich history, told through characters he brought to indelible life. Now he will join us to discuss and sign his new book The Big Burn: Teddy Roosevelt and the Fire that Saved America ($26.00 Houghton Mifflin), the story of the largest-ever forest fire in America and the tragedy that cemented Teddy Roosevelt’s legacy in the land. This timely new book tells an epic story, paints a moving portrait of the people who lived it, and offers a critical cautionary tale for our time.
