520    One morning in 1943, close to eighty men descended into 
       the Smith coal mine in Bearcreek, Montana. Only three came
       out alive. "Goodbye wifes and daughters . . ." wrote two 
       of the miners as they died. The story of that tragic day 
       and its aftermath unfolds in this book through the eyes of
       those wives and daughters, women who lost their husbands, 
       fathers, and sons, livelihoods, neighbors, and homes, yet 
       managed to fight back and persevere. The author has 
       uncovered the story behind all those losses. She 
       chronicles the missteps and questionable ethics of the 
       mine's managers, who blamed their disregard for safety on 
       the exigencies of World War II. Also recounted are the 
       efforts of an earnest federal mine inspector and the mine 
       union's president (later a notorious murderer), who tried 
       in vain to make the mine safer, as well as the heroism of 
       the men who battled for nine days to rescue the trapped 
       miners; and the effect the disaster had on the entire 
       mining industry. She illuminates a particular historical 
       tragedy with all its human ramifications while also 
       reminding us that such tragedies caused by corporate greed
       and indifference are with us to this day.
