Life, Death and Rebirth in an Idaho Mining Town.

By Julie W. Weston

Julie's creative nonfiction book, THE GOOD TIMES ARE ALL GONE NOW: Life, Death and Rebirth in an Idaho Mining Town, released in 2009 from the University of Oklahoma Press, is a memoir of place, weaving the story of hard rock mining and labor strife, leavened with gambling, drinking and prostitution, together with the tale of teenage love and heartbreak in a juxtaposition of life in Kellogg, Idaho in the 1950s and '60s.
