I Survived the Great Chicago Fire, 1871

Oscar Starling never wanted to move to Chicago.
The smog, the stench, the thieves around every corner -- it’s so different from his old life on
the farm. Will the big city ever feel like home? But shortly after Oscar arrives, a huge fire
breaks out. All of Chicago is ablaze and one thing is clear: the city is like a powder keg, ready
to explode. An army of firemen tries to help, but this fire is a ferocious beast that wants to
devour everything in its path.
Will Oscar -- and his new city and new friends -- survive one of the most famous and
devastating fires in history?
