Having heard about this tragedy from both my grandfather, who retired from the Sunshine mine, and my mother whom had classmates who were some of the 91 people who died during the fire, I wanted a little more information behind the fire and the people involved. This book had me feeling like I was right beside the participants and could actually smell the smoke and feel the fear. I learned a lot more than I was told and felt like I had a better grasp of what it was like to be a hard rock miner in America's richest silver mine. Very informative!
