Memory of a Miner is a chronicle of joy and sadness, success and failure, hardship and bounty on an intimate scale. It is a visitation into the life of a man full of courage, strength, and wit who only knew one way to live - all in. The heart of this story takes place between 1930 and 1960 in Harlan County, Kentucky - the most volatile time and place in the well-known conflict between the coal miners and the owner/operators of that day. Although much has been written about this subject - some accurate, some practically fiction - an important reality is usually missing in the telling. Despite coal wars at home and the World War abroad, the fun times enjoyed and the friendships made make this the most treasured time of life for most of those who lived it. Experience this journey through the eyes of an old-school miner who not only loved mining, but was a crack storyteller to boot! You're invited to pull up a chair and get ready for some good laughs...and perhaps a few cries...as you listen to him tell his story of this amazing time in Harlan County's history.
