The British Miner in the Age of De-Industrialization by Jrg Arnold
A book which challenges received understandings of the place of the miner in contemporary British history, arguing that the British coal miners went through a cyclical movement -- from loser to winner and back again -- as Britain underwent a de-industrial revolution in the final decades of the twentieth century.
Scrupulously researched and thoughtful* Richard Vinen, The Literary Review *
