The Dreiser Committee, including writers Theodore Dreiser, John
Dos Passos, and Sherwood Anderson, investigated the desperate
situation of striking Kentucky miners in November 1931. When the
Communist-led National Miners Union competed against the more
conservative United Mine Workers of America for greater union
membership, class resentment turned to warfare. Harlan Miners
Speak, originally published in 1932, is an invaluable record that
illustrates the living and working conditions of the miners during
the 1930s. This edition of Harlan Miners Speak, with a new
introduction by noted historian John C. Hennen, offers readers an
in-depth look at a pivotal crisis in the complex history of this
controversial form of energy production.
