In 1998 the closure of South
Crofty, the last working tin mine in Cornwall, brought to
an end more than 3,000 years of history. This vigorous and detailed
book records what it was like to labour hundreds of fathoms
underground and it pays tribute to the men, women and children
whose lives shaped Cornwall's unique industrial landscape.

"Very enjoyable reading... High
quality photos. The poems evoke the way of life of miners
past and present, capturing their hard existence in a
nostalgic but never sentimental way"
