Disgrifiad Cymraeg / Welsh Description

Mae'r hanesion am 'Lock-Out' y glowyr yn 1926 yn tueddu i ganolbwyntio ar safbwynt Undeb Cenedlaethol y Glowyr, tra bod ystyriaeth megis sut yr ymdopai gwragedd glowyr am chwe mis heb dâl, wedi cael ei esgeuluso. Mae'r gyfrol hon yn edrych ar hanes o safbwynt perthynas rhwng pobl, ac yn cynnig darlun o hanes cymdeithasol y cymunedau glofaol yn ne Cymru. Ail argraffiad.

Disgrifiad Saesneg / English Description

Work on the miners' Lock-Out of 1926 tends to focus on the perspective of the National Union of Mineworkers, while nothing has been written which attempts to examine, for example, how miner's wives coped for six months without pay. This book investigates the Lock-Out from the perspective of gender relations. Second edition.
