Description

This booklet contains an interesting  photographic record exploring the now, largely, forgotten world of the coal-mining industry in South Wales. Peter Morgan Jones details the comradeship of miners below ground and the strong community above it. He also shows the cost to lives spent working in filthy, blackness stalked by the ever-present fear of death or accident.
