Summary

The men who worked British Columbia's mines have passed into history. Coal Dust in My Blood is a moving account of one coal miner's life, in plain, evocative language. But this book is much more than a personal memoir. Bill Johnstone's mining career spanned several decades and he worked in a wide variety of positions. His broad insights reveal important aspects of the history of coal mining in BC.

extremely immersive!

I found this book and, as well as the narration, very immersive, touching but also educative. if you are interested in the topic of mining, definitely a must-read!
