Description
"When the miners of the White 'Oss Pit near Dudley went on strike for the first time in their lives, they were asking for a rise in wages from a penny to twopence per tub of coal. Told from the point of view of Jed Davies, a young miner who is wholly committed to the strike, but cannot help seeing the point of view of the strike breakers, his dilemma is poignantly conveyed."--Publisher description.Tags
