    King Coal, penned by Upton Sinclair and first published in 1917, shines a stark light on the grim working conditions faced by coal miners in the western United States during the 1910s. Like his earlier masterpiece, The Jungle, Sinclair articulates his socialist beliefs through the eyes of Hal Warner, a protagonist ensnared in the relentless machinations of an oppressive capitalist system. This compelling narrative draws inspiration from the real-life Colorado coal strikes of 1914-1915, revealing the harsh realities of labor struggles and the fight for justice. (Summary by Wikipedia) Readers note In Book 4, there is no chapter numbered Section 16 in the public domain Gutenberg e-text. However, no actual text from the book appears to be missing.
