This book is a wonderful fictionalized account of the 1921 "Mattewan Massacre" and "Battle of Blair Mountain," historical highlights of the "West Virginia Mine Wars." It is great to see this nearly forgotten (and possibly suppressed) part of the labor history of the United States so fully covered in this way. In this book you will find (as fictionalized characters) such noteworthy folks as Bill Blizzard (General of the "Red Neck" army - look it up--it's real!!!) and Mother Jones (famous defender of the miners).
The dialect is authentic to West Virginia and gives this book a breath of authenticity.
