This book chronicles the 1986 Los Angeles Public Library fire – which consumed over 400k books and damaged 700k more. A bestseller, and a New York Times Notable Book, it reflects upon the events, the investigation, and more broadly, the importance of libraries to our culture, our historical narratives, and our communities.
