Island of Ashes: the Fire That Killed Key West Jim Moore

The destruction of Key West is an act of wanton revenge that goes terribly wrong. The vengeance takes the form of a devastating firestorm of immense proportions. Gale-force winds and a water shortage make the fire unstoppable, and it devours the legendary part of this lovely Old Island. This raging inferno becomes the backdrop of a powerful drama of rage, deceit, courage, heroism, and the seed of a romance waiting to flower. In the tragedy, Noah Pound, a Key West fireman, and Amy Prentiss, a local artist, discover love, and share a new beginning amid the ashes of the Old Island.
