The main theme of this volume is to transcend over-arching national models and to focus on local coal mining societies which can then be compared and contrasted to similar communities elsewhere. The book tackles many familiar labour history themes in a more nuanced way. It emphasizes the challenges and opportunities available to labour historians.
