Anthony Burton
Mining is Britain’s oldest industry, and this book follows the men and, in the past, women who spent their lives working underground. This story is also one of invention and innovation, looking particularly at how the independent miners of Cornwall and Devon were at the forefront of the development of the steam engine that was to transform society.
