Overall, The Last Thirty Years In A Mining District provides a fascinating insight into the history of mining in Scotland and the wider social and economic forces that shaped the industry.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
