1 edition published in 2002 in English and held by 34 libraries worldwide "[C]hronicles the rise and fall of Butte, Montana, and specifically, the mysterious and grisly death of legendary Wobbly organizer, Frank Little. Much of the extant evidence is inscribed upon Butte's landscape, thus, a connection is drawn between the unsolved murder, and the devastation of the town itself ... The murder provides [the film] with a taut narrative, which is interwoven with the history of the American Left, McCarthyism, environmental destruction, and even the birth of the detective novel."--Container.
