This episode of Big Blend Radio features author Kimberly Collins, who discusses “Blood Creek,” the first book in the Mingo Chronicles that tells the formerly untold story of the women of Appalachia in Blood Creek. In her second novel, Collins dives into the lesser known mine wars of the early 20th century, taking the reader on a journey through an uprising. Coming from a long line of strong and independent women, Collins looks at the uprising from the perspective of the women who fought for more than what they were given.
