King Coal is a novel by Upton Beall Sinclair Jr. (1878-1968) which describes the poor working conditions in the coal mining industry in the western United States during the 1910's, from the perspective of a single protagonist, Hal Warner. As in his earlier work, The Jungle, Sinclair uses the novel to express his socialist viewpoint. The novel is based on the 1913-1914 Colorado coal strikes and written just after the Ludlow massacre. The sequel to King Coal was posthumously published under the title The Coal War. COLL1917ABCAHK292
