A detailed government inquiry into Colorado’s coal strike, uncovering the facts behind a volatile era.

This carefully compiled report documents how a House subcommittee investigated the Colorado strike, visiting Denver, Trinidad, and Walsenburg to hear testimony and examine mine conditions. It captures the people, places, and decisions shaping the dispute, as well as the broader questions about labor law and state regulation in the early 20th century.

Readers will gain a concrete sense of the strike’s scale, the major players in the coal industry, and the challenges of enforcing mining laws during a period of unrest. The material includes firsthand testimony, summary findings, and recommendations that reflect moments of tension between miners, operators, and local authorities.

Firsthand testimony and visits to key mining communities in Colorado’s southern coal fields

Profiles of large coal companies and their influence on the strike

Discussion of safety, labor laws, and the role of militia and guards during the conflict

Ideal for readers of labor history, government investigations, and early 20th-century American industry. This edition presents a factual snapshot of a pivotal moment in Colorado’s mining past.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the turbulent events of the Colorado coal strike of 1913, offering a revealing glimpse into a pivotal moment in American labor history. The author meticulously examines the social and economic conditions that fueled the strike, analyzing the grievances of the miners who sought better wages, working conditions, and union recognition. The book shines a harsh light on the brutal realities of the time, highlighting instances of violence and intimidation perpetuated by both the mine operators and the state militia. A chilling account of the militiaâ� �s actions, including the ransacking of homes, the arrest and detention of innocent individuals, and the chilling threats of execution, provides a stark depiction of the power dynamics at play. The author's careful analysis of these events reveals the deeply rooted tensions between labor and capital in the early 20th century and underscores the need for a more just and equitable treatment of workers. Ultimately, this book offers a powerful reminder of the human cost of labor disputes and serves as a cautionary tale of the potential for unchecked power and violence when the rights of workers are ignored.
