Summary

Life in the Lancashire village of Riggan is dominated by the coal pit, for it not only provides employment for most of the villagers, but it is also the focus for most of the communities hopes and fears. Joan Lowrie, a pit girl who has endured many hardships herself, comes to the rescue of seventeen-year-old Liz and her baby.
