Daughter of the Hills: A Woman's Part in the Coal Miners' Struggle Paperback - 1993

by Myra Page; Introduction by Alice Kessler-Harris; Introduction by Paul Lauter


From the publisher

This novel offers a powerful account of family life and labor conflicts, told through the eyes of a tough, resilient Appalachian woman who is, according to Richard Wright, one of the most impressive proletarian characters in our literature. Daughter of the Hills exposes the economic conditions of the working class and the scarcity of opportunities for working-class women, but also tells the story of a loving marriage that endures despite severe hardships.
