Recollections of the Miners’ Strike
Hilary Cave
This is more than a history.
It is a clear-eyed testament written from inside the struggle and is therefore an indispensable account, offering a perspective that has too rarely found its voice. Hilary Cave walked the picket lines, participated in the decisions, and felt the weight of that year.
Hilary has submitted this book to the Orgreave inquiry.

Recollection of the Great Miners Strike – author Hilary Cave explains how important it is for workers to organise and take up the struggle. Without opposition, the government and employers will continue to impoverish our communities, asset strip our public services and stitch insecurity into the very fabric of our lives.
Manifesto Press has launched the chapter covering Orgreave, taken from Hilary’s book and read by her, as a free download on Bandcamp, which you can listen to here:
