A Letter From The Fire is a historical account of the devastating Great Chicago Fire that occurred in 1871. The book is written by Thomas Dove Foster, who witnessed the fire first-hand and wrote a letter to his family describing the events. The letter was later published as a book and provides a vivid and detailed description of the fire and its aftermath. The book covers the origins of the fire, its rapid spread, and the heroic efforts of firefighters and citizens to try and contain it. Foster also provides insight into the chaos and destruction caused by the fire, including the loss of homes, businesses, and lives. The book is a valuable historical document that offers a unique perspective on one of the most significant events in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
