Iron Finns

BY MICHAEL RESMAN

Brief Description:
After his father's death in an underground iron mine, Matti replaces him on the timbering crew. His uncle promises to get him a safe job above ground in exchange for allowing Socialists to meet at the family farm and plot to win to the 1920 governor's race.

Author Michael Resman is a Quaker, and with Finnish and American ancestor's who worked in mines like these, he brings a broad perspective to this tale.
