Andrews is a history book that examines the 1914 Ludlow Massacre and the wider Colorado coalfield conflict often called the Great Coalfield War. Rather than treating Ludlow as an isolated outbreak of violence, Andrews places it within decades of struggle over mining labor, corporate power, immigration, industrialization, and the physical environment of the Western mining frontier. The book is especially concerned with how coal extraction shaped the lives of workers and managers alike, and how the demands of a fossil fuel economy altered communities, landscapes, and political relations. Using a broad historical lens, Andrews connects labor conflict to environmental history and social justice, showing that the conflict was not only about wages and union recognition but also about land, work, and control over a region built around coal. The result is a study of industrial conflict that is both specific to southern Colorado and significant for understanding American labor and environmental history more generally.
