GEORDIES—WA MENTAL

Geordies — Wa Mental!, is the first volume in the autobiographical trilogy (Stardust and Coaldust) of David John Douglass, a coalminer for 40 years. It tells the fascinating story of the radicalisation of a working-class Geordie ‘baby-boomer’ during the first twenty years of his life, providing a unique and valuable insight into the political and cultural movements of the 1960s.
