An “INTRODUCTION”  from the Postscript by William C. Blizzard:

Some readers, some scholars, may protest this writer’s method of departing from academic “objectivity,” and rooting enthusiastically for the coal miners. That is too bad, but we have no apologies. This is a people’s history, and if it brawls a little, and brags a little, and is angry more than a little, well, the people in this book were that way, and so are their descendants.
