G'day Ann I'd love to read the book but it would cost an arm and a leg to post it. I'll see if I can get a copy locally.

The publisher's blurb is as follows "On February 6th 1890 there was a violent explosion in Llanerch Colliery, near Pontypool in Gwent, which had a long lasting effect on the lives of the valley community. A hundred years later Marguerite Shaw has written a moving novel based on this historical event. her story spans the years from 1890 to 1914 and is told through the eyes of Robbie, the son of Daniel Watkins, whose family life was changed by the disaster that day. It is the story of life in a South Wales valley at the turn of the century. I want to start a Bookring with this book where I send it to the first person on the list. They read it and send it to the next person who reads it and so on. I have started a list here in the Monmouthshire part of the forum http://www.british-genealogy.com/forums/index.php?referrerid=27 but if you don't want to go there just email me privately and I will tell you more and put you on the list if you would like to join in. The only cost is the postage to send the book on to the next person. I am just trying to share what I have.

I'd have the same problem. It sounds like a fun idea, but in a world wide forum such as this, the postage might be more than the cost of the book. You're in Monmouthshire, Ray is in Australia, I'm in the U.S. We're a pretty widespread lot eh? -- We will not forget! www.remember-9-11.com www.ciarancummings.com
