Synopsis
A gripping account of the worst coal mine fire in US history--the 1909 Cherry Mine Disaster that claimed the lives of 259 men. "Drawing on diaries, letters, written accounts of survivors and testimony from the coroner's inquest...Tintori's engaging prose keeps readers on the edge" ( Publishers Weekly ). Inspired by a refrain of her girlhood--"Your grandfather survived the Cherry Mine disaster"--Karen Tintori began a search for her family's role in the harrowing tragedy of 1909. She uncovered the stories of victims, survivors, widows, orphans, townspeople, firefighters, reporters, and mine owners, and wove them together to pen Trapped, a riveting account of the tragic day that would inspire America's first worker's compensation laws and hasten much-needed child labor reform. On a Saturday morning in November of 1909, four hundred and eighty men went down into the mines as they had countless times before. But a fire erupted in the mineshaft that day and soon burned out of control. By nightfall, more than half the men would either be dead or trapped as officials sealed the mine in an attempt to contain the blaze. Miraculously, twenty men would emerge one week later, but not before the Cherry Mine disaster went down in history as the worst ever coal mine fire in the US--and not before all the treachery and heroism of mankind were revealed., Inspired by a refrain of her girlhood -- "Your grandfather survived the Cherry Mine disaster" -- Karen Tintori began a search for her family's role in the harrowing tragedy of 1909.

- e***e (57)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufWhen I received the item, it was totally empty and had leaked all over the box. I had asked for a return/refund and this company was very prompt at responding and gave me a full refund. They did not need me to send back the product and I will be buying from them a lot more in the future.
- h***e (2484)- Bewertung vom Käufer.Letzte 6 MonateBestätigter KaufI had a issue with listing, Seller clarified my misunderstanding. Charger was as described. Thank you. Quality. Excellent value. Excellent condition. Could not be happier. Did I mention the fast shipping.? Excellent value (is that redundant?) Thank you very much. Will buy from the seller again. Great eBayer.
