Seven Steps in the Dark: A Miner's Life in Seven Pits
Bob Smith
The mining industry in Scotland was once one of the most profitable and largest employers in the country. Thousands of men's livelihoods depended on this precious resource as they toiled away beneath the earth. The author writes about the harsh realities of horrific conditions and the political struggles including the strikes in 1972 and 1974.
