Abstract:
Set in 1921 in "The Little Balkans" coal fields of Kansas, Milan and Danika Cratnick eke out an existence. Injury and death are everyday experiences. Their beloved union leader, Alec Howat, is caught between union executive John L. Lewis's bullying, and Governor Henry Allen's "Slave Law," which prohibits miners from striking.
