During the first half of the century, strikes, Union battles, murders and frame-ups were common in any industrial centre in the US - but none of the uprisings compared, in sheer scope, to the West Virginia Mine Wars of the 1920s.

Told by Bill Blizzard's son, this is the full story of this momentuous battle.
