    <![CDATA[In this remarkable book, Barbara Freese takes us on a rich historical journey that begins hundreds of millions of years ago and spans the globe. Prized as &#147;the best stone in Britain&#148; by Roman invaders who carved jewelry out of it, coal has transformed societies, expanded frontiers, and sparked social movements, and still powers our electric grid. Yet coal's world-changing power has come at a tremendous price, including centuries of blackening our skies and lungs&#151;and now the dangerous warming of our global climate. Ranging from the &#147;great stinking fogs&#148; of London to the rat-infested coal mines of Pennsylvania, from the impoverished slums of Manchester to the toxic streets of Beijing, <em>Coal</em> is a captivating narrative about an ordinary substance with an extraordinary impact on human civilization.]]>
