Description:  A compelling dramatized documentary that recounts the epic human rights conflict between immigrant anthracite coal miners, turn-of-the century industrialists, and the United States Government. The film blends powerful dramatic re-enactments with remarkable never before seen archival motion picture footage and photographs to reveal how America's ascendency as the world's pre-eminent superpower was fueled by the extraordinary social and industrial impact of anthracite coal  mining in northeastern Pennsylvania.
