This book presents a brief history of the Scottish coal industry, concentrating on the period following nationalisation in 1947 until the re-privatisation and the subsequent closure of Scotland's last deep mine in 2002. At the heart of the volume is a heavily illustrated county-based inventory of all the coal mines to have worked in this period, and a glossary of mining terms. The book is designed to be of general historical interest, and of use in an educational and research context.
