Beschreibung

In 1910, ranger Ed Pulaski saved 40 men from a wildfire by forcing them into a mining tunnel at gunpoint—then invented the tool that would revolutionize wildland firefighting forever. We explore how this axe-hoe hybrid became the most essential piece of equipment in every wilderness firefighter's arsenal and why it still can't be improved upon over a century later.
