Description:
Beshoar and the interviewers discuss how the coal mining documentation should be put together for television, generating interest in mining history, how miners worked and lived, as well as sociological and family welfare issues. They reflect on how events in the coalfields might have turned out if there had been modern-day media since in 1913 the mining towns were isolated and the local Associated Press office was on the mining company payroll. They watch taped interviews and talk about interviewing techniques and some of the people they spoke with. Beshoar expands on how cities such as El Moro and Trinidad started along the railroad lines and how railroads were created purely under business considerations. He comments on Judge Chenoweth of Colorado and talks about mining in Utah, Mormon attitudes, and the Meadow Park Massacre of a wagon train.
