Glahn. The anthracite industry in Wyoming Valley, Pennsylvania, is no stranger to deadly mine disasters, from the fire at Avondale Mine to the Susquehanna River crashing through the roof at Knox. This illustrated guide — an exciting addition to the acclaimed Images of America series — examines the details of these terrible tragedies, many of which could easily have been prevented if not for negligent management more focused on profits than safety. 128 pages, 164 B&W photos, 6½"x 9¼", softcover.
