Housmans is thrilled to be welcoming Emily P. Webber to the shop to launch her facinating, and often deeply moving story of the last generation of British miners; told through the lives of the men who carved out their identities at the coalface. This is the story of the last generation of British miners: fathers and sons, brothers and comrades, big hitters and broken men, strikers and scabs. Men for whom the masculine world of the pit was all they had ever known, who reluctantly emerged into the daylight for the final time, and others who were happier to consign the dust and darkness to the past.
