She also recounts the tragic accident at the Quecreek mine that trapped nine miners for more than three days, and shares the sorrow and mourning of the community of Shanksville'forever changed on September 11. Join Sister Pulling as she relives the triumphs and tragedies, the heroes and headliners of this historic mountain county., Nestled in the picturesque Laurel Highlands of Pennsylvania, Somerset County has a rich and vibrant history that spans more than two centuries.

    Bid with confidence. Shipped like a book should be. Professionally. Not much could happen to that book whilst in transit. So many books get shipped in a flimsy plastic envelope and arrive damaged but not with this seller. Better than described. Will order from this seller again. Thank you!

All arrived undamaged due to the excellent packaging. All of the items were of excellent quality, exactly as described and at a more than fair price. I plan on ordering more items from this seller.
