| Description |
The interview with Anna Tolich covers the subjects of live in Slovenia, learning to speak English, going to school in Sunnyside, Castle Gate, coke ovens in Sunnyside, her tambourista band, life as a widow, company stores, company doctors, mining strikes, gaining citizenship, current activities, and cooking. 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. |
