    That's right: "Pontefract and Castleford" it is. The only Liberal newspaper between Wakefield and Goole.

    There were well over a million men employed in the British coal-mining industry in the early 1920s. Scratch almost anybody with working-class roots today and you'll discover a grandfather or a great-grandfather with a connection to the industry. The Colliery Guardian, 1858 and then, after this false start, 1860 to 1994 was the leading trade publication published weekly for over a century. It carried increasing amounts of personal information as the years went by from death notices and obituaries to notices of promotions, awards, and so on. It is a crucial resource for anyone researching the history of the industry whether its industrial relations, its economics, its technology, its legal aspects, or its politics.
