This story is a very slightly concealed saga
of real events (fictionalized) that marked
the end of an era of coal exploitation in WV
and particularly in Fairmont. Of great
interest to those who may be curious about
WV culture and its turbulent developments
in the 20th century up to the Great
Depression. The incidental background
elements are as interesting as the
narrrative itself.
