About This Item
Halifax, N.S.: Fernwood Publishing, 1993. This is a story of the Westray coal mine in Pictou County, Nova Scotia. In a miner's own words we are told of the atrocious conditions under which the miners worked. We hear about rock studies, cave-ins and explosively high levels of methane gas which if ignited would cause the knee-high levels of coal dust to explode like a bomb.... Soft Cover. Fine/6x9". History/genealogy.
