Join the LA Law Library book discussion group via Zoom as we continue our year-long exploration of environmental justice and climate related issues with the definitive firsthand account of California’s Camp Fire, the nation’s deadliest fire in a century.
Paradise: One Town’s Struggle to Survive an American Wildfire, by Lizzie Johnson, is a riveting examination of what went wrong and how to avert future tragedies as the climate crisis unfolds. Johnson, a reporter for the San Francisco Chronicle, drew on years of on-the-ground reporting and reams of public records to provide a minute-by-minute account of the Camp Fire, following residents and first responders as they fight to save themselves and the town. This is truly a cautionary tale for a new era of megafires.
