Description
No marks or inscriptions. A lovely clean crisp very tight copy with bright unmarked boards and no bumping to corners. Dust jacket not price clipped or marked or torn with slight creasing to edges and minor traces of handling. 160pp. Easington District was the last area of Durham's huge coalfield to be exploited. This book tells the story of the heroic struggle by the people of Easington District with tragic disasters, defeats and triumphs in their mining industry from the mid-nineteenth century to the early twentieth century. Illustrated by a stunning collection of drawings and photographs, some in colour. A very scarce book.
