Reviews

Coal Cultures is ambitious in its scope, interesting in its detail and very enjoyable to read. Derrick Price brings his formidable scholarship to explore the sophisticated dynamics of the cultures in and around that seemingly most basic of all commodities, coal. To do so within a complex global context is impressive.' -- Paul Cabuts,Honorary Research Fellow at Amguedffa Cymru * National Museum Wales *
