Colorado, 1914. A tent colony of coal miners has been on strike for seven months, bargaining for fair wages and safer working conditions. The Snyder family—Eleven-year-old Frank, his parents, and his four siblings—are doing their best to hold firm with their fellow strikers in the face of threats from the Colorado Fuel & Iron Company. But the simmering threat of violence from the Colorado National Guard and the company strike-breakers grows ever more oppressive. Something terrible is coming soon.
On April 20, 1914, gunfire breaks out in a Colorado tent colony of coal miners on strike. Men, women, and children run for their lives or cower in crude dirt cellars under their tents. In a single day of chaos, six strikers, two women, ten children, and two babies die. These are the facts. But why did it happen? What was it like to be there?
