Quest for Fire

I am reading Quest for Fire - by JH Rosny-Aine. An adventure in search of Fire, set up 80,000 years back. Anybody interested in reading Pre-historic cavemen adventures and if you are one of the person who gets interested and excited in discovering evolutionary aspects of human beings, behaviourial science, then this is definitely worth reading.
 
The ULAM tribe has discovered Fire and they manage to enhance their life with the Fire.They have learnt to preserve it but are not aware of how to start the fire. During an assault on them by some other tribe, the Fire they have managed to keep it alive for long, gets extinguished. Their survival is heavily dependent on the Fire and hence three of the ULAMs led by Naoh, sets out on an adventure to bring back the Fire.
