Book Description
This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1873 edition. Excerpt: ... refers to binding time in the following lines of " The Pitman's Pay" -- "Just like wor maisters when wor bun, If men and lads be verra scant, They wheedle us wi' yel and fun, And coax us into what they want. But myek yor mark, then snuffs and sneers Suin stop yor gob and lay yor braggin; When yence yor feet are i' the geers, Maw soul, they keep yor paunches waggin." CHAPTER IV, THE CO-OPEBATIVE MOVEMENT, AND HEPBURN'S UNION. From the settlement of the strike about the binding time things went on peaceably, and nothing occurred worthy of being recorded till the year 1825, when there was an attempt made to carry out a great social reform. Boys at this time used to be from seventeen to eighteen hours a day in the mine. Allowed to go down at the early, and almost infantile age of six years, the whole of their youthful days were spent in the dismal mine till they became 21 years of age; and, during the whole of this long period, as we have already remarked, they hardly ever saw the happy, health-giving daylight and sunshine, except at short intervals. There were no schools, and no time to attend them had there been so that education amongst miners in those days was out of the question, with the exception of one here and there. Amongst the few, however, there was one bold, honest, intelligent man, named Mackintosh, who was a miner, and felt the degraded state of his fellow-men, and who set about the great social work of co-operation, with a view to the amelioration of himself and his companions. Like Galileo, however, he lived before his time. A commencement was made at Hetton, in the County of Durham, on the co-operative principle, but it soon failed, and it cannot be wondered at, when the prejudice and the ignorance that prevailed at this...

Book Description
First published in 1979, The Miners: A History of the National Union of Mineworkers 1939-46 describes the events and factors that led to the nationalisation of the coal industry in 1946. The World War had a creative as well as a destructive effect on the industry; it compressed fundamental changes into seven short years. By the end of the war, the federated trade unions had succeeded in bringing about the unification of their industry; and the various county, district and craft associations were themselves also unified in one single national body. Two rival plans emerged during 1945: a coal-owners’ plan, in conjunction with an ‘experts’ report’, approved by Churchill and his Caretaker Cabinet, and Labour’s ‘plan for the coal industry’ which came into force in 1946 as the Coal Industry Nationalisation Act. Anew epoch in management had begun, with a National Coal Board, new industrial relations and a new National Union of Mineworkers. This book will be of interest to students of history, sociology, economics and political science.
