First published in 1984, The Politics of the Yorkshire Miners
examines all aspects of political activity of the Yorkshire Area of
the NUM. The book was written using original research from the
archives of the Yorkshire Area combined with the author's personal
experience. It explores developments from 1945 onwards, and looks
at internal politics within the Area, discussing the nature of
policies on both industrial bargaining and wider political aims. It
considers the role of sponsored MPs and their relationship to the
Area, as well as the NUM's 'special relationship' with the Labour
Party. The structure of the Area and its role within the NUM
nationally are also discussed, and detailed analysis is given to
the strikes of 1972 and 1974.
