One Morning In 1943, Close To Eighty Men Descended Into The Smith Coal Mine In Bearcreek, Montana. Only Three Came Out Alive. Goodbye Wifes And Daughters, Wrote Two Of The Miners As They Died. The Story Of That Tragic Day And Its Aftermath Unfolds In This Book Through The Eyes Of Those Same Wives And Daughterswomen Who Lost Their Husbands, Fathers, And Sons, Livelihoods, Neighbors, And Homes, Yet Managed To Fight Back And Persevere.Susan Kushner Resnick Has Uncovered The Story Behind All Those Losses. She Chronicles The Missteps And Questionable Ethics Of The Mines Managers, Who Blamed Their Disregard For Safety On The Exigencies Of World War Ii; The Efforts Of An Earnest Federal Mine Inspector And The Mine Unions President (Later A Notorious Murderer), Who Tried In Vain To Make The Mine Safer; The Heroism Of The Men Who Battled For Nine Days To Rescue The Trapped Miners; And The Effect The Disaster Had On The Entire Mining Industry. Resnick Illuminates A Particular Historical Tragedy With All Its Human Ramifications While Also Reminding Us That Such Tragedies Caused By Corporate Greed And Indifference Are Still With Us Today.
