The House of Abraham Phillips is a fictitious interpretation of the
1875 Lan Mine disaster in Gwaelod y Garth, South Wales. It is told
through the mouth of Phillip Phillips, Abraham's second son.
Haunted by his father's action, steeped in memories and the words
of the Old Testament, Phillip Phillips, seeks resolution to his
anguish. All of the characters in this story lived. The main
incidents are part of recorded history. It is a story of stoical
people, facing hard work and poverty. Against the backdrop of the
beautiful Garth Mountain, they live with the hell of Victorian
industry devastating the valley floor. The 1875 disaster was named
as the worst mining disaster of the year. This story is a memorial
to those who lost their lives in the winning of coal.
