Storming Heaven by Denise Giardina

2.0

This was a compelling story. I know little about the labor movement and if this is based on a true story I find it horrible that companies hired their own security and completely mowed over worker's rights under our Bill of Rights. Call me naive - I need to learn more about this history.

I ended up skimming portions of this book though and it's all due to the language. I'm pretty sure the dialect used was authentic from my time in Kentucky, but it was very difficult for me to read and really detracted from enjoying the story.

If you can get past the dialogue, you'll enjoy reading this and it might shock you enough to learn more.
