In this presentation, Jon Bartlett and Rika Ruebsaat tell the story of a coal miners' strike in Princeton, BC during the Depression.

The winter of 1932-33 saw the small town of Princeton divided. Princeton's few thousand citizens saw much of the human drama of the Great Depression play out right in their own lives over the course of just a few months.

Jon Bartlett and Rika Ruebsaat are on the board of the Princeton and District Museum and Archives Society and have worked as teachers, authors, and professional signers. Together they have released seven CDs and two books focused on the Similkameen valley where they live.
