Overview
EVER BEEN TO SEATTLE?The way Laura Hillenbrand's Seabiscuit and James Cameron's Titanic made people want to be adventurous and pick up reins or experience epic love, Seattle's Great Fire will make you never want to leave the Pacific North West again:Ash only tells one story-the end. It's hard to fathom that one of the most devastating tragedies never heard of, The Great Seattle Fire of 1889, that torched over one-hundred acres of businesses and what would equate to twenty million in present time dollars in damages, wasn't thee "Fire" the native Duwamish tribe Chief Seattle had spoken of in his premonitions.
Seattle's Great Fire genesis is set in mid-1800s Seattle, from the perspective of the land itself, as it unearths the town's "first citizens." The region's progressive thinking Chief, whom the city would be later named after, had the tall task of not only getting the message out about the coming destruction but also trying to get his people to align with the pioneers who had their idealistic ambitions of how the land should be colonized.
An unlikely ally and dear friend of the last great chief was a pioneer and local doctor, David "Doc" Maynard. As stewards of the territory, they both surmised, aside from the coming blaze and teetering communities' issues, such as the not so uncommon Treaty and fight of which all other skirmishes would be measured, The Battle of Seattle, their people problems would outlive them. Chief Seattle would grow fond of a Duwamish boy named Catóri (Ca-tar-ri) and Doc of a young orphaned girl he took under his wing and would later become an extension of himself, named Milá.
These two bared witnesses to the town's tribulations as they leapfrogged across the 19th century. As faith for a peaceful coalitions takes on a new form in Milá and the "spirit" of the Emerald City, they realize time is running out, not just on their love confession but on the town's trial by fire.
