Description:
Newton Abbot: David & Charles, 1971.. Originally published in 1898 and 1904 by The Colliery Gaurdian Company Ltd. The Work has been universally accepted as one of the finest technical histories of any British industry and almost all later writers on coal mining have been indebted to it. Volume One includes many of the famous milestones of mining history, such as the emergence of the Tyneside 'viewer' and the important role of steam power in the successful winning of deeper seams. Volume Two continues the review of technological change, often with a wealth of detail. A special section is devoted to accidents from explosions, the eradication of these being still a burning issue when Galloway was writing. For this reprint Baron F. Duckham has written an introduction and compiled a select bibliography. Vol. One: Pp.533, 8 plates + 45 figure illustrations, owner's name and his embossed stamp to front free endpaper. Vol. Two: Pp.409, portrait frontispiece + 15 figure illustrations, owner's name and…
