Labor novel set in the anthracite regions of Pennsylvania during the 1890's, depicting "the exact living status of the parties concerned, who the miner is and what his home life is like, the opinions and lives of honest officials, the ruling spirit of operators, the principles put in practice by unscrupulous hirelings, principles that are the generators of strikes which afflict all classes and threaten the social fabric of the state" (p.1). Kemp's writing was informed from his experiences living in Pennsylvania coal country over the course of twenty years. Scarce, particularly in dustjacket.
