Steam Drills, Treadmills. And Shooting Stars -A Story Of Our Times- [Perfect Paperback]

Activist Henrietta Owens is hurtling toward the coal company like a 'social terrorist in a hijacked plane' fueled by the necessity of change. Every word she says is true . . . and people know it. Coal company lawyer Jack Dalton's world is about to implode. With her infant in her arms, Henrietta shakes the nation awake with some tough-loving truth about coal, climate change, and the future of humanity. The coal company wants her stopped at any cost. Jack Dalton's morality and career collide as the boss threatens to use murder, tear gas, imprisonment and violence. The stakes are high: life, death, the extinction of humanity. Jack's wife crosses the line of loyalty, his daughter lectures him on heroism, the Appalachians foment a revolution, and the ghost of legendary John Henry shows up to haunt him. The climate change countdown is ticking. Political pressures heat up. The sleeping giant of the common man awakens with a roar. One question hammers in Jack's ears: what are you going to do?
