Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1891, thousands of Tennessee miners rose up against the use of convict labor by the state's coal companies, eventually engulfing five mountain communities in a rebellion against government authority. Propelled by the insurgent sensibilities of Populism and Gilded Age unionism, the miners initially sought to abolish the convict lease system through legal challenges and legislative lobbying. When nonviolent tactics failed to achieve reform, the predominantly white miners repeatedly seized control of the stockades and expelled the mostly black convicts from the mining districts. Insurrection hastened the demise of convict leasing in Tennessee, though at the cost of greatly weakening organized labor in the state's coal regions. Exhaustively researched and vividly written, A New South Rebellion brings to life the hopes that rural southerners invested in industrialization and the political tensions that could result when their aspirations were not met. Karin Shapiro skillfully analyzes the place of convict labor in southern economic development, the contested meanings of citizenship in late-nineteenth-century America, the weaknesses of Populist-era reform politics, and the fluidity of race relations during the early years of Jim Crow.

This book was released on 1979 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Southern Tennessee Coal Field comprises some 14,000 square miles of the Cumberland Plateau Physiographic Province and includes all or parts of 11 counties. The coal measures belong to the Lower Pennsylvanian System. The largest coal potential lies with the Richland and Sewanee seams, which are contained in the Whitwell Shale. The methods of obtaining coal reserve data in this report are adaptations of those used by the Tennessee Division of Geology, US Bureau of Mines, and US Geological Survey. This study differs from previous coal reserve estimates in that emphasis is placed on recoverable underground reserves as well as strippable reserves. Conservative premises were used throughout this study so that the resulting reserve figures may be considered as the minimum known recoverable coal reserves. Therefore, the total known recoverable reserves of coal in the Whitwell Shale in Southern Tennessee as of January 1, 1979, are 377,385,000 tons based on the above criteria considered with recovery factors of 50% for underground mining and 80% for strip mining. The Sewanee seam contains the largest part of these reserves totaling 312,665,000 tons. The largest reserves in any Southern Tennessee county are in Sequatchie County with 86,580,000 tons. The reserves in this area are ample for the future, and are much larger than previously estimated.
