In
the index of the book, author Bill Mathias has done meticulous
research, spent many hours, and carefully listed all 1610 names of
the persons who fought the fire. DNR personnel who worked on the
Five Mile Tower Fire have their names listed separately and the
hours spent on the fire are not known to the author. However, the
hours worked on the fire by most of the citizens who signed up were
available in the archives and are listed.
