Goodbye Wifes and Daughters by Susan Kushner Resnick uncovers the story behind the losses behind the tragic 1943 story of how almost 80 men descended into the Smith coal mine in Bearcreek, Montana and only three came out alive.

Lisa Bonos of the Washington Post said,“Resnick does an admirable job of breathing life into the story of a smalltown’s demise and its questioning of whether the disaster could have been avoided.”

On April 18, Resnick was a guest on Write The Book and interviewed by Shelagh Shapiro. The interview aired in Burlington,VT on WOMM-LP 105.9 FM.
