Book excerpt: This is the first substantial collection of prose and poetry about coalminers and coalmining throughout the United Kingdom. The authors include famous names such as Robert Burns, D.H. Lawrence, J.B. Priestley, and Emile Zola, but many are the voices of miners themselves - beautifully composed, authentic, and passionate. The compilation was made by a safety-lamp manufacturer who devoted his life to higher safety standards in the industry. Much of the contents are drawn from his extensiv e library of fiction and non-fiction about mining, illuminated by images from his art collection. The anthology is a rich source of fine literature - and a moving record of the lives of miners and their families; A unique feature of the book is biographies and bibliographies of the authors, the product of a wide-ranging search.They are accompanied by biographies of the artists featured in the book.

Download or read book Evan's War written by Malcolm Stevens and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2009-04-30 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Evans War is the sweeping tale of a young coalminer whose life takes a dramatic turn when he joins the army at the onset of the First World War and is sent to fight the Turks at Gallipoli. The book traces the saga of Evan Morgan from childhood in a small coalmining town in the Rhondda Valley of South Wales to Turkey and beyond. The cast of characters includes Welsh and English, Turk and Armenian, American, Australian and Indian. Leaving behind his childhood sweetheart, Gwyn, with a promise of marriage once the war ends, Evan arrives in Gallipoli unprepared for the horrors of trench warfare. But he finds an inner strength that sustains him during the terror of the landings and ensuing campaign against the solidly entrenched Turkish army. When he is wounded and taken prisoner, Evan finds himself in a prison hospital near what was then Constantinople. A series of events brings him to seek refuge from the war in a seemingly serene farming village on the shores of the Bosphorus populated by Turks and Armenians. Here, while seeking peace and contentment, he falls increasingly under the spell of a beautiful but mute Armenian girl with a tragic past. And it is here that the course of his life changes in ways he could never have imagined. Evans story is one of divided loyalties: the emotional pull of his homeland and the peaceful, bucolic life he finds in the village; his love for the free-spirited poet he left behind in Wales, and for the Armenian village girl. It is also one of conflict between nations, and between neighbors who cannot live together in peace. Above all it is a tale of Evan Morgans journey from childhood to maturity in a world gone mad.

Download or read book Writing the 1926 General Strike written by Charles Ferrall and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2015-02-19 with total page 237 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Ferrall and Dougal McNeill's book analyses the vast literary response to the 1926 General Strike. The Strike not only drew writers into political action but inspired literature that served to shape twentieth-century British views of class, culture and politics. While major figures active at the time wrote on or responded to this crucial moment, this is the first volume to address their respective works. Ferrall and McNeill show how novels then in progress, such as Virginia Woolf's To the Lighthouse and D. H. Lawrence's Lady Chatterley's Lover, were affected by the Strike, as well as the ways in which it has been remembered from the 1930s to the present. Their study sheds new light on the relationship between politics and literature of the modernist era.

Book excerpt: World War II brought about a remarkable expansion in female work opportunities in South Wales. Women suddenly found themselves performing unfamiliar work in unfamiliar surroundings and earning relatively handsome wages.

A Forgotten Army aims to recover their lost voices and to highlight the vital role played by Welsh munitionettes in World War II.
