Sobre IBD

Endorsed by Howard Zinn as 'an ingenious blending of fact and fiction,' The Canyons unfolds through the perspective of Harlan Baxter, a corporate functionary sent to investigate a Colorado mine. When an explosion in a mine shaft precipitates a strike, Baxter fights alongside the miners in the ensuing conflict. With rounded characters, a charged moral atmosphere, and a fast-paced plot, The Canyons explores the Colorado Coalfield War of 1913-14, the most violent labor insurrection in American history.
