Excerpt from Miners the Eight Hours Movement During the months of January and February, of the present year, a very important Conference was held in London, to consider the proposed Eight Hours Working Day in Mines. The Conference was a very large and representative one of Colliery Proprietors and Miners, and the proceedings excited great public interest. The letters constituting this Pamphlet appeared some of them during the Conference, and the remainder immediately 3 after, and were widely read. Consenting to a general desire, they are now presented in this collective form, in the hope that they may be of some service in enabling the Miners in particular, and the public in general, to understand clearly what the Eight Hours proposal really means. Miners, I know, will be willing to read all that can be said for and against. A good deal has been made, or tried to be made, of the fact that in Northumberland and Durham the Coal Hewers do not now work so much as eight hours per day. Still, they are strenuously opposed to a compulsory Eight Hours Day in Mining. Why? I will endeavour to supply the answer in the words of a very able Mining Contributor to a leading provincial journal (Manchester Guardian, Feb. 22rd, 1891.)

First published in 1993, The History of the Yorkshire Miners 1881-1918 is concerned with the workers in the Yorkshire coal industry, their union, and the broader mining communities in which they lived from the formation of the Yorkshire Miners’ Association in 1881 through to the end of the First World War. The period covered is of considerable importance for the consolidation of the Yorkshire Miners Union, and indeed for the building of a national miners’ federation and an international miners’ organisation, in both of which the role of Yorkshire’s leadership was central. The decades straddling the turn of the century were characterised by volatility in the mining industry, which was reflected in a number of strikes. Carolyn Baylies traces these general processes and focuses, in detail, upon a number of episodes during which union struggles and community involvement coalesced. She explores the dynamic between district and local levels of the union, and the tensions that accompanied a progressive rationalization of bargaining machinery. This book will be of interest to students of history and sociology.
