Part memoir, part novel, Richard Kilroy O�Malley�s compelling coming-of-age story captures life in Butte in the 1920s, when the city was a lusty, two-fisted copper camp. Written with sensitivity and feeling, this wonderful book brings to life the Irish, Scandinavians, Slavs, Cornishmen, Syrians, Greeks, Finns, and Italians who scratched a living in the boisterous mining city. First as observers and then as participants, Dick and his friend Frank see and feel the stark power of the mines�a mile high in the blue sky of Montana, but a mile deep, too, in the sweat and gloom of the underground shafts that trapped and destroyed.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Many Things Come together in this novel: a simple, engaging style; an intimate familiarity with Butte in the 1920s; sympathetic characters; and a narrative with a smooth sweep that encompasses almost every aspect of Butte's history without feeling contrived." <p/>--Aaron Parrett, Author of "Literary Butte"<br>
