The miners of the North-East, working in the most dangerousof conditions, supplied the coal which fuelled the engines ofthe Industrial Revolution and provided heating and lightingto millions of homes. Throughout much of County Durhamand Northumberland pit communities sprang up because ofthe need for coal. Mining was fundamental to thedevelopment of the region. Illustrated with numerous colour photographs, Echoes of theNorth-East Miners throws the spotlight on the physicalheritage left by the pitmen and their communities, includingthe numerous memorials and banners which speak soeloquently of their struggles in the face of adversity, theircompassion and their enduring spirit of friendship.
