In early twentieth-century Cape Breton, coal mine workers spent all day in dangerous conditions. But the brave miners stood up to the companies, going on strike and risking their livelihoods to achieve better working conditions and healthier communities. Fight On! is at once an engaging history and a passionate call to action against injustice.
