The Welsh Miner - A Hard Life - The History Of Miners And Mining In Wales. The life of a Welsh miner can, at best, be described as hard, dangerous and unrelenting. Yet there was a special character to the pit towns which made them different to other industrial settlements elsewhere in the United Kingdom. Valley societies were stable and safe places to live with an instinctive democracy and cohesion of classes, where individuals were respected for themselves and their own personal qualities. Featuring extensive interviews of current and ex-miners, period imagery and archive footage, this DVD delves into the often humorous but always proud history of Welsh mining. DVD contains both black & white and colour material.
