Review: This 1992 masterpiece of literary nonfiction is a taut, terrifying yet poetic account of how, in 1949, thirteen young firefighters lost their lives while fighting a conflagration in a remote, steeply sloped part of western Montana. Maclean . . . is unsparing in his prose and dogged in his reporting, piecing together the elements that led to more than a dozen men suffocating and burning to death. The story, which I ve read at least four times now, is agonizing to read, making the hairs on my arms stand on end. It is also one of the most pleasurable experiences I ve had.

Forget Smokey the Bear. Ranchers in Otero County, New Mexico, find themselves in an escalating dispute with the United States Forest Service (USFS) over adequate access to water for their drought-stricken cattle. But while the USFS insists that it has acted properly and legally, the county commission and sheriff have come down strongly on the side of frustrated ranch-owners, raising significant issues of individuals’ and states’ rights versus the power of Obama’s White House. In a series of interviews, May 16- 19, AMERICAN FREE PRESS conducted an in-depth investigation.
Rancher John Bell, whose great-grandfather was a territorial legislator, explained, “We are trying to follow the rule of law, but our patience is wearing thin.” He asserted that federal officials, by contrast, were ignoring laws and court decisions.
