We Lived A Life And Then Some: The Life, Death, and Life of A Mining Town - Softcover
Based on in-depth oral interviews with local residents, and rich archival sources, We Lived A Life and Then Some relates the common person's struggle to overcome harsh working conditions and government neglect. The unique culture of the hardrock mining town of Cobalt is exposed through the eyes of retired miners, young welfare mothers, and grade-school children. Angus and Griffin reveal why, in spite of great adversity, Cobalt remains a distinctive and cohesive working-class community.

Book Description Softcover. Condition: Fair. Lawrence, Sally; Moir, Rob (illustrator). Second Printing. 145 p. 24.5 cm. Sound and square binding in cardstock covers. It has a distinct odor upon opening - possibly pipe smoke as it is quite sweet. The front corners of the book are damaged. It looks like the book was dropped in some mud or something dark at the top corner which has left the pages rippled and stained in this corner. The bottom corners are curling. The book is shelf rubbed. Despite the damage, the inside pages are clean and perfectly legible. An account of the lives and history of the people of Cobalt, Ontario, based on in-depth interviews with local residents and archival resources. Seller Inventory # 3121
