Read this excerpt from The Great Fire.
According to the excerpt, what caused the fire to
spread so quickly?
The fire had begun near the corner of De Koven and
Jefferson and quickly fanned out thanks to increasingly
gusty winds. One tongue traveled north up Jefferson,
while the other headed east toward Lake Michigan.
There was no way firefighters from two engines could
contain a wind-driven fire with such a wide front. Still,
they did their best.
O the gusty winds
o the canvas hose
O the white steam
O the firefighters
Two men hauled the cumbersome canvas hose as
close to the flames as possible and aimed a stream of
water at the burning building. The water hissed and
boiled when it struck the burning wood, sending up a
vapor of white steam.
