Reconstruction of a Tragedy: The Beverly Hills Supper Club Fire - Paperback

by Richard L. Best (Author)

First published in 1978, this book is the first technical report on the Northern Kentucky tragedy that claimed 165 lives. Prepared by fire prevention specialist Richard L. Best, it lays out in detail the factors that contributed to the enormous loss of life. This study, along with Robert Lawson's "Anatomy of a Nightclub Fire" tells the detailed history of how the building became, over time, a firetrap and ultimately and death trap.
