This manual explains the evolution of British coalmining from a
technical and engineering standpoint from the 18th to the 20th
century, the heyday of British mining. The book explains the
history and technology both above and below ground, exploring the
pit head surface machinery and the transportation networks that fed
into it, and the personal kit and equipment of individual miners.
It also looks at how successive generations of mining engineers
have met the perennial challenges and dangers of mining: pressure
from millions of tons of rock and earth above; water drainage; fire
and gas explosions; roof and seam collapse; underground
illumination; ventilation; disease and accidents.
