It is easy to imagine the pride that filled the earliest human being after they had overcome their fear and succeeded in taming the flame they took from these fires in the wild; with what care they nurtured and fed it. From then onwards, those capable of creating fire knew they possessed a very precious tool. The conquest of energy by easily combustible wood, then flint stones, pyrites and fire steels, was the first great victory over the natural world". Unused copy still in shrinkwrap.
