Description
Hard Coal Lessons illustrates how one Pennsylvania family is affected by the mining of anthracite coal over a sixty-year period between 1903 and 1963. It paints a story of an incredibly volatile era characterized by violent strikes, abominable working conditions and extreme wealth disparity. How one Scranton family copes with these issues while combatting endemic greed and pervasive corruption mirrors the struggles of many families of the region. The lessons learned by this family as they struggle to overcome these destructive forces come at a tragic price.
