(4) YA Horrors of History series. In 1914 Colorado, the National Guard killed twenty people (including women and children) during a coal miner strike. This novelization, which contains graphic details, struggles to accommodate facts into a smooth narrative, but readers will come away with a sense of the tragedy's scope. Archival photographs bring the story to life. An epilogue and author's note provide sources and separate fact from fiction.
