Welcome to Litsy!

FINALLY finished this one after reading it for 3.5 months. It was so good and well researched, just heavy and emotionally difficult to read in some places. It is well worth any reader's time.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I was honored to be able to read this. Hamby gives such value and justice to these devastating accounts of hard working miners who were affected by Black Lung Disease.

I grew up in coal country and couldn‘t put down this wonderfully written and reported book. Felt similar to Erin Brockovich and whistle blower movies. #ARC #Netgalley
