Allen D. Breck Award Winner: Anne Southwell, Metaphysical Poet, Hugh Wilson Jan 2000

Allen D. Breck Award Winner: Anne Southwell, Metaphysical Poet, Hugh Wilson

Quidditas

The native mountaineers, unaware of the wealth beneath their feet, were either scattered throughout the state or became coal miners themselves. Since that time all West Virginians, not merely coal miners or former land owners, have been subjected to the will of out of state companies because they not only control the mines and the …
