"Labour in the Coal-Mining Industry 1914-1921" offers a definitive examination of one of the most tumultuous periods in British industrial history. Written by the influential social economist G.D.H. Cole, this work provides a detailed account of the coal industry's transformation from the onset of the First World War through the post-war economic crises.

The narrative explores the complex interplay between the state, the mine owners, and the miners themselves, documenting the move toward government control during the war and the intense struggle for nationalization that followed. Cole meticulously analyzes the role of the Miners' Federation of Great Britain, the deliberations of the Sankey Commission, and the broader social implications of industrial unrest.

As a foundational text in labor history, this work captures the high-stakes negotiations and the evolving status of the working class during a time of global conflict and shifting economic paradigms. It is an essential resource for scholars and readers interested in the history of trade unionism, the evolution of energy policy, and the economic foundations of 20th-century Britain. Through its thorough analysis, the book illuminates the enduring challenges of labor relations in a vital national industry.
