The 36 heartfelt and personal accounts about fire management contained in To Burn or Not to Burn reveal not just the differing perspectives on fire management but perhaps more importantly, how Australians interact with the land on a more profound level which may provide a greater understanding on the future role of fire in mainland Australian landscapes.
