Description

One of the great accidents of nature occurred in Siberia in 1908 when a fireball appeared over the horizon and slammed into a remote forest area of Siberia, creating shock waves which were felt half a world away. THE FIRE CAME BY goes into great depth and explores not only what Russian scientists have to say about the affair today, but also enlightened opinions from scientists worldwide, as well as on-the-scene reports and interviews. The book makes the fantastic comprehensible and gives the event a threatening immediacy.
