DEDICATION 

This work stands as a testament to the men, women and children who worked the mines of Great Britain and to their families.
The work created a bond of trust and loyalty amongst them and a band of comradeship that forged the communities in which they lived and worked. It is a record of the true price of coal.
WE WILL REMEMBER THEM
