Summary: Morrie Morgan finds himself back in Butte as the chief editor for the Thunder, a fledgling union newspaper brave enough to challenge the ruthless Anaconda Company and its stranglehold on the copper boomtown. He is thrust into a world of corporate intimidation and union politics, gangsters and bootlegging, set largely against the backdrop of the old-fashioned newsroom. Ivan Doig is a third-generation Montanan, former ranch hand, newspaperman and magazine editor with a Ph.D. in history. He is the author of 14 books, including "The Bartender's Tale" and his classic memoir, "This House of Sky." He lives in Seattle.
