Stunning Book Reveals Environmental Disasters In Appalachian Coal Country

Readers of this blog know I am a fan of the regional blog Daily Yonder, and again I call attention to it by way of its reviewing an important book about the hateful practice of mountaintop removal to get at the coal below.

Review and details here.
