Nick Pappas, Richard Melzer - foreword, Paul Brion (Narrator), "Crosses of Iron: The Tragic Story of Dawson, New Mexico, and Its Twin Mining Disasters"

In October 1913, 261 miners and two rescuers died when a massive explosion ripped through a mine operated by Phelps, Dodge & Company in Dawson, New Mexico. Ten years later, a second blast claimed the lives of another 120 miners. Today, Dawson is a deserted ghost town. All that remains is a sea of white iron crosses memorializing the nearly four hundred miners killed in the two explosions-a death toll unmatched by mine disasters in any other town in America.
