Summary
Think coal mining, and most likely you think men. This book tells a very different story. Women have long been the backbone of the coal mining industry. As wives and mothers theyve fought battles for better working conditions; established womens auxiliaries; distributed food to strikers and their families, and stood on picket lines.
