Excellent book. Making Sense of the Molly Maguires is generally the most authoritative book on the Mollies (and most books on the subject are total junk), but Bulik wrote Sons of Molly to complement Making Sense.

All that aside, though, Bulik is a great writer! There are plenty of parts in here that made me stop and laugh out loud.
