The driving power behind America's rise from backward agricultural colony to the industrial force of the modern world was coal. This is the story of coal through the eyes of two families - one the magnates, one the miners - over five generations while locked together, for better or worse, in a common quest.
First Published in 2003. This volume charts the history of anthracite coal mining industry and developments around the Josiah White rolling mill in Philadelphia, the Lehigh Coal Mining Company created in 1972 in Pennsylvania, Canal and railroad developments, John Leisenring and Sharpe, Leisenring and Co; and Westmoreland from 1794 to 1999.
