Bill Archer\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe remarkable story of Bluefield represents a unique combination of geology, geography, and opportunity. Once just the confluence of a handful of family farms in southern West Virginia, Bluefield was put on the map, literally, \u003cbr\u003ein the 1880s, when the Norfolk \u0026amp; Western Railway came to town. The company's influence on the rural landscape was overwhelming, and soon, Bluefield was transformed into the center of a coal-fired universe and became a major thoroughfare for the then-thriving mining industry. \u003cbr\u003eThough the company--not the coal--was king in Bluefield, enterprising men and women could, and did, share in its \u003cbr\u003esuccess. The city evolved into a successful supply center for the enormous network of towns that sprung up almost overnight throughout the region's coalfields. For the next 60 years, Bluefield experienced dramatic growth, enticing a diverse group of newcomers who helped to build the strong cultural heritage that continues to play a prominent role in the community to the present day.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 130\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.38 x 9.61 x 6.69 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 28, 2000\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47283735036153,"sku":"9781531603847","price":43.18,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/MWJYR2ZadjdiWHIvRWozWVhBM3Ftdz09_1bd2e6a5-6720-458f-901f-63820e22ea68.webp?v=1769078274","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/bluefield-hardcover-2","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
