Danger, Death, Disaster
Coal Mining in the Crowsnest Pass, 1902-1928

Karen Buckley


The Crowsnest Pass is famous for the tragic rock slide at Frank, in 1903, as well as the many coal-mining tragedies that afflicted the region in the early twentieth century. The author uses original source material such as grave markers, folk songs, and oral histories to portray the psychological and sociological aspects of the regional responses to death and danger.
