At the end of each day I simply sat back and used fantasy to see what it might be like for invisible gnomes, the Little People, as my Irish granny called them, to view us human beings. Or so-called humanwhat is that?

Why are there so many things we never say, and questions we never ask, not realizing their importance until it’s too late? All of us have made that mistake, and Bruce Archibald is no exception. His late father, John (Jack) Archibald was a brilliant man. Driven, ambitious, and community minded, he was a role model to his children in many ways. But he could also be a terrible bully, opinionated, inflexible, and harsh even with his own family. After living a parallel life in many ways—for better or worse—Bruce has long wished for a chance to get answers from his father and finally understand why he’d been so firmly set in his ways, determined to follow a pre-set, linear path through life, even at the expense of his own happiness, and determined that everyone around him follow in his footsteps. Sadly, this man of baffling contradictions had passed away decades earlier, and it seemed his son’s questions would remain unanswered indefinitely. But then, while vacationing in Australia with his wife, a chance encounter with a white lorry lands him in hospital, heavily medicated, and the normal rules of past and present cease to exist. Then the telltale glow of a White Owl Invincible cigar from the shadowed corner of his room announces the presence of an unexpected and impossible visitor...

A major contribution to women's history, labour history, and economic and social history. This book examines three different groups of women - in coal mining communities, in inshore fishing communities and in agricultural labour. It demonstrates how the work these groups undertook was fundamental in shaping their experiences as women in different ways and shows that women's experiences varied within class as well as between classes. The book illustrates how mining women, despite being restricted to domestic roles, created, through meticulous housekeeping, a power base in their homes and rendered their husbands dependent on them, while a minority took so active a role in politics that they were said to be 'the backbone of the Labour Party'; how fisher women, engaging ina household economy reminiscent of pre-modern times, exercised great influence on financial decision making through their roles in baiting lines and selling fish; and how some single female agricultural labourers exercised considerable autonomy whereas those who were tied in a family economy had little independence. Overall, the book makes a very significant contribution to women's history, to labour history and to economic and social history. "This is a tremendously useful and relevant book for historians of women as well as social and labor historians." - Professor Joan Scott, Institute of Advanced Studies, Princeton University VALERIE HALL is Professor Emerita of History at William Peace University, North Carolina
