303 pages. First American edition, first printing. Introduction by Liam O'Flaherty. The human drama of a coal-mining town in England where the miners' cottages lie back-to-back with a grimy alley between. A town of one main street beginning at the pit-head and ending at the graveyard. Fine book in a near fine dust jacket with very slight fading to the spine and a 1/8" chip missing from the top of the spine. A beautiful copy!
