On October 8th, 1871, the same day as the Great Chicago Fire, the nation's most deadly wildfire raged through eastern Wisconsin. The Peshtigo Fire killed an estimated 2,000 Americans. It left a permanent mark on the Midwest. (IMPORTANT CORRECTION: Per listener Neil Miller, Door county is in Wisconsin, not Michigan. Thank you, Neil!)
