This Is A Disaster

Episode 30: The Great Chicago Fire

61 min • 10 juni 2020

Hey, we heard you like wood, so we stored wood in your wood so you can wood when you wood!  When they first built the Windy City, perhaps they should have considered building materials that were a bit less timber-based.  Controversy about Mrs. O'Leary's cow versus Daniel "Peg Leg" Sullivan aside, the great fire that tore through Chicago in October 1871 took no prisoners.  A cow, a lamp, a drunk, a city made of kindling, and twenty-four hours of one of the worst infernos to hit a major US city.
