Coal Mining in Ilinois

[Steven Holding <hold-on@s...>]

List

After the Streator Meet I was doing some research and stumbled upon an 
intresting book on coal mining in Northern Ilinois
"Black Diamond Mines" By R. G. Bluemer It is self published so not very wide 
distribution. Can be found for about $15 from
his outlet. Grand Village Press 134 Cleveland CIrcle Granville, Ill. 61326
Covers a lot of the mines in an area not noted for coal mines but some were 
served by the CB&Q
