Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the grievances common to coal mining over the last century and a half, from the perspective of both workers and employers, as well as the public. It explores the nature of work underground, describing the room-and-pillar method of coal mining and explaining terms used to discuss the layout of mines and their component parts, like entries and gangways. The author argues that grievances, rooted in circumstances rather than personal fault, have not changed much throughout the history of the industry, and that, despite improvements in safety, there have been no overarching organizational changes that would address these issues. The result is an insightful look into an industry that has historically been plagued by conflict.
