Belly of Blackness

Viac o knihe

This is the story of one familys struggle and triumph in search for more from life. Two men, one in Italy and the other in Scotland, make the decision to leave their wealthy families and the women they love to make a fresh start in distant Canada. Their dreams of a better life as farmers are thwarted by the reality of what it means to be an immigrant and they are driven deep into the belly of blackness that is a coal mine. Swallowed up by the pattern of life in coal mining camps, they find themselves constantly moving from town to town across Alberta and into British Columbia, looking for a possible way out.
