== Author's Note ==
In the Author's Note at the beginning of ''Kettle Bottom'', Fisher explains the cause of the conflict between the West Virginia miners and the company owners and operators: "Subsistence wages, the unwillingness of coal operators to slow production for safety reasons, their intransigence with regard to the rights of the miners to organize—these conditions made enemies of the miners and the operators. The situation was aggravated by the organization of life in the camps, which the companies controlled in every respect. Housing was owned by the company; trade was often limited to company-owned stores; the company brought in the doctor, often built the school and brought in the teacher, built the church and supplied the preacher."〔Fisher, Diane. ''Kettle Bottom''. Florence, Massachusetts: Perugia Press, 2004, p. 1〕
