The Deep Dark

I grew up in this area so I thought it would be interesting to read about this disaster. My dad and his brothers were miners but were all employed by Bunker Hill in 1972. I was a six year old who, of course, didn't pay any attention to this when it happened.

Years later, when I attended Kellogg Jr. High, I became friends with a classmate who had lost her dad due to this catastrophe. The book does mention her family several times and it was a little emotional for me to read that.

Overall, I did appreciate this accounting of the disaster.
