Reviews
Praise for the author's previous book, Fire Underground"Enough bureaucratic villains to fill a Dickens novel." --New York Times Book Review "DeKok has not only reported and written a compelling first-hand account of how an underground fire destroyed Centralia, but he even gives us an anatomy of how the disaster happened and analyzes its implications for one community, and in a sense for all of us. A thoughtful and thoroughly engrossing read!" --Lisa Scottoline, author of Dirty Blonde, a fictional story about Centralia"An excellent, unbiased chronicle devoid of the emotionalism which set resident upon resident." --Library Journal (for the book as previously titled, Unseen Danger)
