"Women of Coal documents lives which have too often been overlooked by those who write about our region-often, lives of quiet heroism; always, lives of immense interest. As they tell their own stories in their own words, these women spring vibrantly to live-confident, eloquent, real. Women of Coal is an important and moving testimony to their integrity, intelligence, energy, and commitment."
