This short kindle essay is about a railroad strike in the 1870s. It is rather interesting and detailed about an event in American history that people know little about. It also ties in nicely to the history of unions and the history of the working class.
I stayed up much too late reading this Kindle Single. Outrage and fury do that to me. Novelist Cecelia Holland tells the facts of this moment in history, the Railroad Strike of 1877, like the storyteller she's honed her skills to be. My outraged shrieks can be read at http://tinyurl.com/myv4yu3
