Penning and designing the manuscript, "The Coal Miner," the author, Charles Washko, duplicated a work ritual of his hero, Albert Einstein, by keeping his breath fresh above ground, by using "Atom Mints." Mr. Washko was born in a small borough of Swoyersville, Pennsylvania, which lies in the northeastern part of the state, between Wilkes Barre and Scranton. For 200 years, the Anthracite coal industry has been an elongated string of tears to the mining families of the area. Because of the necessity of the mineral coal, the adamant toil, in northeastern Pennsylvania, is going on to this very day. Charles Washko's kindred and many friends were associated with the coal industry. An early education at Holy Trinity Parochial School, in Swoyersville, Pennsylvania, was granted the author. A wonderful Slovak, American order of Catholic nuns were Charles Washko's teachers, who he treasures and cherish to this very day. Charles attended Swoyersville High School. Soon after he graduated, Charles Washko was off to spend three and a half years in the United States Air Force, where he was a member of the United States Air Force military medical corps. A marriage and two sons, Charles and Patrick, followed. Both sons were captured by the vocation of medicine and are now serving the people of the United States. Some thirty years ago, because both his grandfathers and dad, and many of his Swoyersville and Wyoming Valley, Pennsylvania friends toiled in the coalfields, the author decided to attempt to pen, what is now the manuscript, "The Coal Miner." Knowing the chore of fictively charactering, riveting and anchoring, in honor, a multitude of the workman's tales into hearty yarns would be an unending chore, the author hopes you enjoy reading the respected novel left behind, in remembrance of the brave and courageous coal miners and soldiers he had privilege to know. Thank You Charles Washko
