PlashMill Press is proud to announce the publication
of A Boy's Own Mining Adventure, by Brian Page.
This is a hilatious prequel to Brian's highly
successful A Boy's Own Offshore Adventure,
published last year.
The new book tells the story of Brian's years
working in the Lancashire coalfeld, at Bold Colliery.
He said "It was a tough life and often
dangerous, but it had its lighter side-- there were some great characters
and many funny moments.
He added, "Everyone thinks working in
the North Sea Oil industry is tough, and it is; but after the mines
the North Sea was like a breath of fresh air--a very strong breath
of fresh air."
Meet Shotfirers, Overmen, Deputies and all
the rest of the cast of men who toiled to bring King Coal up from
the depths of the earth.
A Boy's Own Mining Adventure is funny, witty
and touching but also is a thought-provoking insight into the real
lives of the miners.
