Mining and Social Change (Routledge Revivals)
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-90330-2 (ISBN)
The personal documents presented in the first chapters of the book bring to life the local mining community with an evocative picture of village life at the turn of the century. These first-hand accounts are integrated with the results of social research carried out at Durham University over a number of years.
Mining and Social Change will be of interest to students of history and sociology.
