| Description |
The interview with Albert Vogrenic covers the topics of his background, the 1922 strike, mining wages, summer jobs, playing baseball in Hiawatha, his family, and retirement activities. The Carbon County oral history project (1972-1993) consists of oral histories from residents of Carbon County, Utah. While the main emphasis is on living in coal mine country, the interviews are verbal snapshots of rural Utah life from the earliest settlers to as recently as 1993. |
