Recounts the difficulties the state of West Virginia faced during the post-World War II period. While documenting this turmoil, this valuable analysis also traces the efforts of the New Frontier and Great Society programmes, which stimulated maximum feasible participation and lead to the ultimate rise of grass roots activities and organisations that improved life and labour in the region.
