{"product_id":"the-coal-trap-james-m-van-nostrand-9781108830584","title":"The Coal Trap","description":"\"Introduction: \"The Lost Decade\" This book examines the impact of developments in the energy industry, and the associated political dynamics, in Central Appalachia - primarily West Virginia - over the ten years from 2009 to 2019, a period I refer to as \"the lost decade.\" At the outset, it is worth answering the questions that are posed by the scope of this book: Why the energy industry? Why West Virginia? Why the years 2009 to 2019? And what does the \"coal trap\" mean? This introduction answers those questions, and provides a preview of what I will cover in the remainder of the book\"--\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James M.
