Yes it is a good book, the latest in a series by David Owen.
He knows his onions because he was a miner himself for many years, lives down the road from me and is a good friend.
He will be pleased that he has a mention on this site.

Just found a good site for those of you researching ancestors who were either killed or injured in the colliery.

http://www.cmhrc.co.uk/site/disasters

It has information from all over the country but mostly from Wales, just put the surname of the person you are researching into the search engine.
