Rhondda Collieries

Rhondda' - even now the name evokes the turbulent times when Rhondda (actually two valleys the Fawr and Fach) was synonymous with the deep-mining of steam coal. This is a story of pioneering deep-mining and unbridled capitalism: the prospecting of two valleys unfettered by health and safety amid divisive industrial relations and scarce health-care. The result fired railways steam-powered shipping and the engines of the Industrial Revolution across the world. Using a mixture of historical and modern photographs coloured by personal testimony and memories this book reveals the vibrant turbulent often tragic record of Rhondda: from pastoral vale via 'black gold'-rush to grimy industrial prime followed by the twentieth-century economic slide the demise of all its fifty-three collieries and
today's valleys - a mainly residential landscape of green hills.
