Coal

“Travel back to an era during the 1940′s and early 1950′s and experience life in a Southwest Virginia coal camp as seen through the eyes of a young boy, Franklin Delano Roosevelt Gentry (Frankie).
Be a witness to the trials and tribulations, the joys and heartaches, and meet the unforgettable characters who contributed to the close-knit environment of the times. It is a story of life and death, happiness and sorrow, but most of all…it is a story of love.”

Music of Coal: Mining songs from the Appalachian Coalfields. Stories and pictures of miners, song writers and singers of the mountains. Lyrics of the songs and 2 CD’s of music. Hardback.
