 What conditions does author believe are contributing to larger and more catastrophic wildfires in the western United States in the last decade?

 

As these articles were written over a twenty-five year period, do you see any shifts in the author's perspective or opinion?

 

The author balances on many issues between stereotypical points of view: she loves logging but she's critical of logging contract written by a sawmill; she supports fires in the woods, but she is engaged in firefighting. Give an example of an issue presented in the book, and explain if the author is clearly on one side of the issue or the other, or if she is taking a middle road point of view.
