Men with Black Faces: The Tears of the Human Worms - Paperback

Albert J. Thomas II is a graduate of Appalachian State University in North Carolina and received a master's degree in curriculum and instruction from St. Vincent College in Latrobe, Pennsylvania. He grew up in a coal mining camp and spent a tour in Vietnam. He is an artist, is married to Kiti Roic from Croatia, and has two children. He decided to write this book to keep the coal miner's legacy alive through all the backlash they receive from the green energy advocates. His life growing up in the coal mining patch of Filbert greatly assisted him in understanding his grandfather's voice in this book.
