""A Trooper's Narrative of Service in the Anthracite Coal Strike, 1902"" is a historical account of the author's experiences as a trooper during the Anthracite Coal Strike of 1902. The book was written by Stewart Culin and was originally published in 1903. The strike was a significant event in American labor history, as it involved over 140,000 coal miners in Pennsylvania who went on strike to demand better wages, shorter hours, and improved working conditions. The book provides a firsthand account of the strike, including the violence and unrest that occurred during the conflict. Culin describes the actions of the state troopers who were sent to maintain order during the strike, and he provides insight into the tactics used by both the strikers and the authorities. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of labor relations in the United States, as well as those interested in the social and economic conditions of the early 20th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
