The book explores the historical significance of north central Ohio, originally known as the Firelands, which was established under King Charles II's grant to Connecticut's Western Reserve. Despite territorial reductions after the Revolution, the area encompassed over three million acres, later managed by the Connecticut Land Company. Key to its development was surveyor Moses Cleaveland, who in 1796 charted the region near the Cuyahoga River, leading to the founding of a settlement that nearly carried his name.
