The Shadow of the Mine
No one personified the age of industry more than the miners. The Shadow of the Mine tells the story of King Coal in its heyday – and what happened to mining communities after the last pits closed. The Shadow of the Mine tells the story of King Coal in its heyday, the heroics and betrayals of the Miners’ Strike, and what happened to mining communities after the last pits closed. No one personified the age of industry more than the miners. Coal was central to the British economy, powering its factories and railways. It carried political weight, too. In the eighties the miners risked everything in a year-long strike against Thatcher’s shutdowns. Their defeat doomed a way of life. The ling...
Working for Ford
Working for Ford (1984) describes just what it is like to work in a car factory, very often in the words of the workers themselves. It also reveals the process by which large-scale industries seek to overcome industrial conflict and the way in which unions, shop-floor workers and shop stewards express their political and economic aspirations. It examines the changes the 1973 oil crisis caused in the British car industry and how they affected the Ford Motor Company.

Ballin in Black
"When Tom Abercrombie was presented with his 100th cap ahead of the FIBA World Cup in 2019, he joined an exclusive club. He became the 11th player to reach a century of tests for the Tall Blacks. Standing at his side was Pero Cameron, the first man to achieve the feat. These players, and the nine between them, have shaped the game in the modern era, cementing New Zealand as a respected force across the basketball-playing world. Hailing from all over Aotearoa New Zealand and beyond, they've sacrificed blood, sweat and tears - not always their own - for the black jersey. Each of their journeys has taken a different path, yet they all intertwine in the fabric of New Zealand basketball. From hiding in the back of Mum's car, bleeding out on court, or living in a janitor's closet, to squaring up to Yao Ming, dunking on NBA superstars, and falling agonisingly short of the World Championship final, these are the stories of our Tall Blacks Test Centurions." - Back cover.
