MINING IN CORNWALL VOLUME 1: THE CENTRAL DISTRICT

By J.H. Trounson & L.J. Bullen

The central district covered in this book contains the Camborne school of mines along with more large mine workings.
Dolcoath, South Crofty, East Pool and Agar and a host of other mines flank the granite outcrops. In this first collection of Cornish mining pictures the authors give a visual tour of the area's mines and miners, engines, buildings and way of life.
Drawing on an unrivalled private collection and enriched by detailed and informed commentary, these pictures, many never before published, re-discover Cornwall's mining past to bring this bygone heartland of industry to life within these pages.
