Everett 'Moon' Lunamin returns from battles in Vietnam determined to gain wealth and social status mining coal during the coal boom of the late 1960’s and early 1970’s. Moon struggles with his cousin George Landsetter, a reclamation officer, and surface mining competitors whose greed exceeds their ethics. He succeeds and marries his high school sweetheart, whose family accepts him because he is now wealthy.
