Show notes--including a wonderful custom made image!--at historian.live Making of a Historian is BACK doing a season on the history of coal.

Then giant plants got trapped in oxygen-poor bogs and started to form the black burnable rock that will be at the center of our history. Questions? Feedback? Treats?
