This work analyzes the cole miners' culture, focusing on the sense of region-wide solidarity produced by high levels of geographic mobility, the prominence and self-reliance of black miners, and the generation of miner-preachers as rivals to the contemptible ministry of the company-sponsored churches. The book contains photographs, illustrations, chapter notes, a bibliographical essay on sources, a bibliography, and an index. This HARDCOVEER copy is clean and solid.
