Hope someone can help me with this stumper.
A patron is looking for a book she read some time ago. (No idea when it was
published, it is at least 10 years old, probably much older) The book is
about a coal mining town and she thought the title of it was "Maggie". (I
believe that is also the name of the town.)
That's all she remembers about it.
Thanks in advance,
Sharon Custer

The Camerons by Robert Crichton, 1974
The story of the indomitable Maggie Drum who washes the grime of
coal-mining Pitmungo town from her beautiful face and sets out to
find a man worthy of fathering her family.
