Set against the backdrop of the 1922 coal miner strike in Herrin, Illinois, the story delves into the intense conflict between unionized miners and strikebreakers hired by mine owners. As tensions escalate, the violent clash culminates in a shocking betrayal when surrendering strikebreakers are promised safety, only to be executed by union miners in front of a cheering crowd. This gripping narrative explores themes of labor rights, violence, and the moral complexities of survival in a turbulent era.

Set in the fictional town of Rollingdale during a severe drought, the story follows Harry Dwight, a water vendor, and his friend Leo. After discovering that Mayor Zwoke, a corrupt politician, is cheating him, Harry retaliates by sabotaging the mayor's garden party with porcupines. This sparks a feud that leads Harry to run for council, resulting in outrageous political campaigns filled with antics. The narrative explores themes of corruption, rivalry, and the absurdities of local politics, culminating in Harry's eventual victory over the mayor.
