About Blown To Bits In The Mine
Product Description Interspersing tales of death and survival, Eric Twitty tells the story of explosives in the United States mining industry in an interesting and easy-to-read way. This book is as much for the casual observer of western history as it is for explosive experts wanting to know more about the tools of their trade. Interesting photographs and drawings complete the picture of perhaps the most dangerous of all occupations. About the Author At the age of seven, Eric Twitty became interested in mining history. Since then, he has made extensive trips to mining districts throughout the West in search of physical evidence and fact to compare against the numerous mining books he had read. In 1999, he completed a M.A. degree in American History from the University of Colorado. He then started a consulting business. He is currently researching, recording, analyzing and evaluating historic Colorado mines.
