For more than a century, people have blamed Mrs. O’Leary and her cow for the Great Chicago Fire of 1871. Much as the fire laid waste to Chicago, this nonfiction text lays waste to the theory of cow culpability, revealing several missed opportunities to contain and extinguish the flame. Photographs, newspaper clippings, maps, and more help visual learners understand this well-written and enthralling historical document.
