There have been many books published about the coal mining industry of Britain but relatively few about the miners themselves. This book concentrates on the miner, his family and his work through a careful selection of illustrations. Although most of the images are photographic, and therefore relate to the latter part of the 19th to the closing years of the 20th century, use is also made of much earlier sources, from woodcuts and engravings to illustrations in contemporary journals and magazines.
