Great book by Norman MacLean. He wrote A River Runs through It and started the University of Chicago Press. This book is about the Mann Gulch tradegy. In 1949 a crew of 15 of the US Forest Service elite airborne firefighters jumped into a forest fire in the Montana Wilderness. All but 3 were killed. A= book.
