I met up with Dr Hywel Francis MP last week in the House of Commons. Hywel, who wrote the definitive history of the South Wales Miners' Federation with Rhondda-born Professor Dai Smith, and founded the South Wales Miners' Library, has now written a book on his memories of the Miners' Strike which of course began 25 years ago this last week. I read the book on the train back last week and can thoroughly recommend it.
