It reasses widely accepted generalizations regarding the industry's economic development and explores its social ramifications. Assisted by: Hall, Alan; Unknown function: Kanefsky, John
Rezensionen / Stimmen
It will remain for a long time the most authorative treatment of the coal industry in the nineteenth century and the starting point for many theses. * Albion *
