by Michael G. Rushton (Author)

Captures the remnants of Northeastern Pennsylvania's coal industry, preserving memories of the last coal breakers through evocative photography and historical markers.

Relics of Anthracite in Northeastern Pennsylvania: Volume III continues to explore the former anthracite industry through photography. The last three standing coal breakers in the Wyoming Valley--the Huber, the Harry E., and the Sullivan Trail--are gone. Only some culm dumps and tainted streams and rivers remain to remind us of King Coal. Monuments and historical markers keep the memories alive.
