Thirty Days Among The Mollie Maguires is a non-fiction book written by Herman Marsdorf and published in 1877. The book provides a firsthand account of the author's experiences as an undercover detective investigating the notorious secret society known as the Mollie Maguires in the coal-mining regions of Pennsylvania in the 1870s. The Mollie Maguires were a group of Irish-American miners who were accused of committing a series of violent crimes, including murder, arson, and sabotage, in order to protest against the harsh working conditions and low wages imposed by the mining companies. Marsdorf's book offers a detailed and often chilling portrayal of the Mollie Maguires' activities and the methods used by the detectives to infiltrate and dismantle the organization. It is considered an important historical document for its insights into the social and economic conditions of the time, as well as for its role in the eventual downfall of the Mollie Maguires.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
