Boys of Gold
About this book
' Boys of Gold displays a mural of memories that illustrate his life, comradeship, compatriots, kindred spirits as colliers and warriors.' – Roy Noble
A collection of short stories, some set against the background of the author's life as a coalminer in the Neath valley and a soldier in Burma during World War 2, dealing with caring and loving relationships within families and coal-mining colleagues, and with formative wartime experiences. Together with one personal essay about the fellow miner and writer B. L. Coombes.
Featuring a new foreword by Professor Dai Smith, this Parthian/Modern edition will also feature a new short story, 'The Onllwyn Train'.
