Cesar D’Angelo was 10 when his father was killed in the mines. Cesar, the oldest boy in his family, had to take his father’s place working for the coal company. His first job was working high up in the dangerous coal breakers. At the age of 12, he went down into the blackish, coal dusted mines to begin his long mining career. His first job was sitting in the dark alone for 10 to 12 hours a day as a door keeper. Later he became a spragger, mule driver, and had various other jobs until becoming a lifetime coal miner.

Wonderfully researched

This was a wonderful book. However I wish that the author had gone into more detail to make me feel like I was in the mines with protagonists father. The book was very fact heavy which was great, but it felt more like a history book than a novel. Still a fantastic book!
