Condición: Good. Softcover without jacket. Corners beginning to curl and bumped area noted to top front edge. Pages clean and bright. SIGNED BY AUTHOR AND ILLUSTRATOR. Graphic Novel. In 1916, the great industrial city of Cleveland desperately needed clean water for its burgeoning population. An incredible plan was conceived. Miles of great tunnels would be dug 200 feet BELOW Lake Erie where water that was still clean and pure could be captured and channeled towards the thirsty masses onshore.

Set against the backdrop of one of the nation's earliest man-made ecological catastrophes, Fire on the Water is a powerful historical fiction graphic novel that exposes the racial and economic divides of the early 20th-century Midwest. Written by Scott MacGregor and illustrated by Gary Dumm, this graphic novel brings to life the harrowing events surrounding the 1916 East Ohio Gas explosion in Cleveland, Ohio—an industrial tragedy that devastated a working-class neighborhood and revealed the stark inequalities of the era. Through vivid storytelling and expressive artwork, the book follows the lives of those affected by the disaster, weaving together themes of corporate negligence, environmental recklessness, and the resilience of marginalized communities. Fire on the Water is not just a chronicle of a forgotten tragedy—it's a searing commentary on the costs of progress and the voices too often left out of history. Perfect for fans of socially conscious graphic novels and readers of historical nonfiction, this is a haunting and timely reminder of the human toll behind industrial ambition.
