nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware - Printed after ordering - Four couplesStefan and Anna, Cyril and Adriana, Jan and Katarina, and Emil and Editafled their European homes, desperate to escape the poverty, war, and tyranny of kings and emperors.

Adriana and Cyril, angry at the working and living conditions in Lattimer, were ready to shut down the mine, no matter the methods. Jan and Katarina were forced to make a painful decision. Emil, with wife Edita and a young family to support, joined the union and was among the strikers who marched to Lattimer on September 10, 1897.On that fateful day, the local sheriff and his deputies met the oncoming protesters, confronting and then murdering nineteen and wounding thirty-nine more. Emil survived and agreed to be a witness at the trial of Sheriff Martin and his deputies. The Road to Lattimer chronicles their stories.…
