This week I attended the Montana Historical Society - Montana History Conference. This year's conference is being held in Butte Montana. One of the speakers, Dr. Doug Ammons, gave us a tour of Butte that was connected to the mine disaster. It was riveting.
This album will be a collection of primary and secondary sources about the disaster.
Dr. Doug Ammons, author of "A Darkness Lit by Heroes: the Granite Mountain - Speculator Mine Disaster of 1917. In 2018 he received the High Plains Book Award for creative nonfiction.
