Coal town : The life and times of Dawson, New Mexico / Print. Toby Smith. - Santa Fe, NM Ancient City Press 1994 - 129 p. Bibliography, photographs. Paperback.

Toby Smith's book is a work of magic, conjuring visions in pictures and sound: the coughs of miners, the distant thunder of mine explosions, the echoes of rowdy town picnics and the whisper of ghosts from a slower, rugged era. His fascinating account of a small SOuthwestern town peoples history with a quiet majesty.
