Book excerpt: This work reflects part of the history of Wyoming coal mining. Much more needs to be written. To those that have produced written histories, historical overviews, and manuscripts we cited here, we extend thanks. To the archaeologists and historians who are studying Wyoming's past and attempting to preserve its lasting legacy, we applaud your efforts. The flight of time is not complete, but the history that has passed shows coal miners will be a part of the future. To those that are attempting to preserve the mining history of Wyoming and the West, we are grateful. And to men such as Steven Creasman and Gary Beach, who have the courage to dream and the willingness to persevere in attempting to save America's past, thank you. With the help of such unselfish individuals this work has been strengthened, but the responsibilities of accuracy fall to the authors alone.

Book excerpt: Glencoe was just one of Wyoming's many small coal camps that was established in the early twentieth century. Some coal camps survived beyond World War II, some lasted a little longer and some flourished and grew into the great coal producing towns of the twenty-first which still supply coal for the nation. Though Glencoe's history is brief, it is rich in the stories of her hardworking people-the miners and their families, the union, the schools and the mine itself. Though life in that small coal camp was hard, the people pulled together to create a rich sense of community and the times were not devoid of simple entertainment, of fun and of friends. As they did in Echoes of Elkol, Dorothy Wright and her collaborators have once again pieced together the story of a small coal mining community in southwestern Wyoming and its two even smaller neighbors, Blazon and Star Mine. Gathering information from all quarters-oral histories, historical records, photos from the archives and from family collections and newspaper accounts- and weaving it together into the cloth of a memorable story that has been all but lost until now. Here, in Glencoe, Spelling Out Western Coal Camp History, the past has been made whole and available to anyone who values the story of the people who have contributed to the history of Wyoming and, indeed, the country.

Book excerpt: Based on the life of West Virginia coal miner and moonshiner Edward Peter Burdiss, this volume transports readers to the early years of the coal mining industry, including the history of coal mining, children coal miners, mine wars, and life in the coal camps of the early 1900s. Edward Burdiss went to work in the coal mines of West Virginia at the age of eleven to help support his family. He became a moonshiner during prohibition for the same reason, and was considered the greatest rumrunner in the history of Raleigh County, WV. His story personifies the spirit and the struggle of coalminers and moonshiners.

Download or read book Early Coal Mining in the Anthracite Region written by John Stuart Richards and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2002 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Four distinct anthracite coal fields encompass an area of 1,700 square miles in the northeastern portion of Pennsylvania. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, underground coal mining was at its zenith and the work of miners was more grueling and dangerous than it is today. Faces blackened by coal and helmet lamps lit by fire are no longer parts of the everyday lives of miners in the region. Early Coal Mining in the Anthracite Region is a journey into a world that was once very familiar. These vintage photographs of collieries, breakers, miners, drivers, and breaker boys illuminate the dark of the anthracite mines. The pictures of miners, roof falls, mules, and equipment deep underground tell the story of the hard lives lived around the hard coal. Above ground, breaker boys toiled in unbearable conditions inside the noisy, vibrating, soot-filled monsters known as coal breakers.

Download or read book Dirty Mines written by John Fitzgerald and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-02-13 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DIRTY MINES is a story about coal mining in Pennsylvania. For the first time many of the jobs performed by boys, as young as 8 years old, are described in detail. Cesar D'Angelo was 10 when his father was killed in the mines. Cesar, the oldest boy in his family, had to take his father's place working for the coal company. His first job was working high up in the dangerous coal breakers. At the age of 12 he went down into the blackish, coal dusted mines to begin his long mining career. His first job was sitting in the dark alone for 10 to 12 hours a day as a door keeper. Later he became a spragger, mule driver, and had various other jobs until becoming a lifetime coal miner. DIRTY MINES also addresses the rich history of this era; including the miscarriage of justice towards the Molly Maguires in their fight for union rights and the environmental disaster at the Knox Coal company that ended coal mining in North Eastern Pennsylvania. This is a family story about the last generation of Scranton coal miners. It is a fascinating and warm narrative of sacrifice, humor, and love. A revealing story about a forgotten way of life in difficult times, with very little pay in horrible working conditions. It's an anecdotal story of courage and tenacity of poor deprived coal miners that struggled to make a better life for their children. Their historic sacrifices are being passed on to a new generation, so their unique heritage will never be forgotten.
