### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    An eye opener!
  

*by S***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 2, 2018*

I have a great deal of interest in the business of coal mining, as my grandmother's father and older brothers were lost in the Monogngah W V mining disaster in 1907.  I want to understand the world that she lived in and the horrors of the work they did and sadness that must have permeated all of their life.  This book helps me to understand the mindset of that time and how my great grandmother must have felt waiting for word after the mine collapse. While I have a special interest in this time in history,  the interest to you may be in the authentic voice he gives to coal mining specifically and our American Industrial history In general, in his other, well researched books.Of course, Mr. Sinclair  wrote this book many many years ago and so there is a odd formality to the storytelling.  I have read many old books, and I enjoy that style, if you are new to the style, please hang in, you will come to enjoy the difference.  I am going to look at his other books now, and expect to learn more about where the roots of our middle class came.

    Coal Miners as Chattle
  

*by K***R on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on June 18, 2021*

My Grandfather was a coal miner in southwest Virginia at the turn of the last century and he died of black lung. A union man he fought hard to better his lot in life. Two weeks before his retirement they fired him, leaving him without a pension. He was so poor and sick he had to move in with his sister in law and a cousin. It is for him that I read this book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    It's a great read.
  

*by C***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 16, 2016*

This book is an historical novel of life in the coal mines in the early 1900's before and during the time of developing of unions. The characters have a lot of depth and are recognized as individuals, each different.They are entire families. The development of the story is done with most of the characters being immigrants with their own spoken language and an understanding between them based in non verbal understanding and caring for one another. The main character is a wealthy young man who is embedded in the camp to learn about the industry in disguise an becomes "one of the guys" to study the culture.. He is not interested in displaying his wealth which doesn't mean much to him. He goes to bat for them and helps start a union. It's a great read.
