Florida Man decides to burn books in his back yard, starts a large fire.
Rather than donating his unwanted books, 10 homes and nearly 400 acres in Nassau County are now destroyed because a Florida man decided to burn a pile of paperbacks in his backyard.
The man hasn't been identified, but so far his book fire, which officials are now calling the Garfield Road Fire, is only 65 percent contained and no longer spreading, reports CNN.
Officials with the Florida Forest Service say the fire started Wednesday when the man was burning paperback books.
