I think it could have been a compellimg topic, but the writing style made it a very slow read.
fascinating research about early san francisco and firefighting in 1800s america.
I found his writing tedious and hard to concentrate on. Good stories though.
There's a good story here, but it's totally obfuscated by the writing.
