    I’m thrilled to receive delivery of my book, “Stalin’s Englishman” by Andrew Lownie, very promptly indeed. Purchase exactly as described, condition is very good. Book safely and securely packaged. Communication with seller has been most helpful and informative at all times. I have every confidence in reliability of this seller, from my experience of previous books purchased and of buying three titles on this occasion. Value for money is superb. Really looking forward to reading this book now.

    The Book that you must Buy and Read

    This is a First Class Book and Well written by Jeremy Paxton. I used to be a Coal Miner back in the 1950. So I know all about Accidents in Coal Mines. The Book Black Gold keeps you enthralled right from the beginning. When he describes all the feelings of those families waiting to hear if their loved ones are still alive and you can actually feel those feelings when you are reading. I am so glad that I bought it.

  • Excellent and informative history

    Book looks like new. The content is very well researched and written and is fair to all sides. It is very easy to read and covers everything in the history of coal mining in England

  • Very enjoyable read

    Bought as a gift for a former Coal Board worker who couldn't put it down. Brought back lots of memories, good and not so good.
