Coal Country Dr Gerben J. Messelink

Coal Country Dr Gerben J. MesselinkThis is the first book length account of deindustrialization in the Scottish coalfields. The flooding and subsequent closure of Scotlands last deep coal mine in 2002 brought a centuries long saga to an end. Colliery closures and job losses were not just experienced in economic terms: they had profound implications for what it meant to be a worker, a Scot and a resident of an industrial settlement.
