From the coal camps of northeastern New Mexico comes a tale of families and friends struggling to rise above working and living conditions In this prequel to Coal Camp Days, the Chicorico miners battle to establish a labour union that promises to rectify dangerous and oppressive mining conditions.

Much of the literature about northeastern New Mexico depicts range wars, bandits, labor union strife, and Indian depredations. This collection of twelve modern folktales describes events that never made headlines and people who never had a building named after them. The stories show how ordinary people managed to conduct dignified and happy lives.
