Memories Come To Us In the Rain and the Wind
Doug Brugge 2000 Red Sun Press: Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts

This book contains 25 oral histories from Navajo uranium miners and their families. Their hope was to gain compensation for the great loss in death and illness brought about by mining uranium, with no warning of its ill effects, during the Cold War era of 1947-1971.
