Hello.
Thank you for taking the time to view this channel.
This channel is no way meant to macabre, ghoulish or tacky, rather, the goal of the channel is to shed light onto the absolute horror in which was the historic era of anthracite coal mining in the anthracite coal fields in Pennsylvania. Sadly, only a handful of well-known disasters are looked back on, occasionally by only a dedicated small niche group of local historians. Day in, day out, from roughly the 1840s to the 1960s, tens of thousands of men toiled underground removing the highly coveted rare anthracite coal. Unfortunately, well over 30,000 would perish violently underground and on the surface, some are forever entombed underground. Hopefully through historical research, primarily audio, some still images, this channel can shed light on the nearly countless smaller tragedies these men suffered. They deserve remembering.
