Discusses about a way of life ended in Leicestershire when Bagworth Colliery, one of the oldest and longest running traditional deep mines in the country, closed in 1991. This book describes the miners' early experiences of working in the local pits and their day-to-day life, with the ever-present threat of injury, death or disaster.
