BELOW IS THE STORY!!!
BURNING A BOOK
by William Stafford:
Protecting each other, right in the center
a few pages glow a long time.
The cover goes first, then outer leaves
curling away, then spine and a scattering.
Truth, brittle and faint, burns easily,
its fire as hot as the fire lies makeâ
flame doesnât care. You can usually find
a few charred words in the ashes.
And some books ought to burn, trying for character
but just faking it. More disturbing
than book ashes are whole libraries that no one
got around to writingâdesolate
towns, miles of unthought in cities,
and the terrorized countryside where wild dogs
own anything that moves. If a book
isnât written, no one needs to burn itâ
ignorance can dance in the absence of fire.
So Iâve burned books. And there are many
I havenât even written, and nobody has.

Which detail from "to build a fire" best supports the idea that most of the real yukon prospectors had little experience for surviving in cold weather? it happened. it was his own fault or, rather, his mistake. he should not have built the fire under the spruce tree. there was the fire, snapping and crackling and promising life with every dancing flame. he would have to build a fire and dry out his footgear. this was imperative at that low temperatureâhe knew that much. the flame he got by touching a match to a small shred of birch bark that he took from his pocket.
