Before this book, I was unaware of the political murder of the United Mine Workers' Joseph Yablonski, his wife and his daughter, who were assassinated in their home in 1969 by killers hired by the union's old guard.

This book was hurt by its timing, unfortunately, since it obviously was completed before the killings happened, and cover them only as an epilogue.
