Host Jeff Young talks with historian Chuck Keeney about his new book, "The Road to Blair Mountain," which tells the story of the effort to save the site of a bloody fight in the region's mine wars a century ago. Not only was this chapter in labor history deliberately suppressed, the mountain itself was nearly destroyed by coal mining.

And we hear from a retired coal miner who now volunteers his time at a museum dedicated to reviving Appalachia's labor history.
