Cardowan, Rothes, three names which will be familiar to thousands of ex-miners. From the 1950s to the '70s Ian Terris worked in them all. This is his own account of the rigours of mining the machinery and methods, the dangers, the management (and mismanagement), and the camaraderie and conflicts of the men themselves. Spanning the period of technological change just before the decline of the industry, this book gives the inside view of Twenty Years Down the Mines.
