In the summer of 1983, Barbara Kingsolver was assigned to cover the Phelps Dodge mine strike as a freelance journalist. Over the year that followed, she recorded stories of striking miners and their stunningly courageous wives, sisters and daughters. She saw rights she'd taken for granted denied to people she had learned to care about, and she was determined to share their voices. This is the true story of the courageous women and girls who held the line, who discovered themselves in their fight for rights, and of Kingsolver's commitment to showing the sparks that fly when the flint of force strikes against human mettle.
