Bullock recounts the six-month struggle between the Western Miners Union in Roslyn, Washington and the owners of the Roslyn-Cle Elum coal mine in 1934, early in the presidency of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. His grandfather was one of the striking miners, and he draws on family history as well as other sources to piece together why things started out so well for the miners but ended in bitter disappointment. His topics include unhappy days, a battle of ideologies, tapping the ceiling, murder at Christmas, the gauntlet, and the speed cops. Annotation ©2015 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
