Description
Rennie MacKenzie is the author of 'In the Pit: A Cape Breton Coal Miner'.
About the author
Rennie MacKenzie worked for fifteen years in No. 12 and 18 Collieries--at the coal face and, with the coming of mechanization, driving diesel, hauling coal in the pit. Then he left the mines, became a college graduate, and served as a United Church minister. He retired to New Waterford where he lives with his wife.
