Jonathan Symcox launched his latest release The 1984/85 Miners' Strike Nottinghamshire on Saturday 28/11/11.
The event was well attended with over 60 people including, miners, local press, photographers and the local MP who gave an excellent supporting speech.
John Lowe, chairman of Clipstone Colliery's strike committee, was at the forefront of the fight for jobs of the twelve months' 1984/85 miners' strike at a time when most Nottinghamshire miners preferred to work.
Lowe was witness to many disturbing events, recording his experiences and thoughts in a diary so that they would never be forgotten: With the scars of the dispute still fresh, he reflected upon both local and national events to produce pieces of writing from the heart, illustrated via a huge collection of documentation and memorabilia.
Jonathan Symcox, a Yorkshireman, grandson of John Lowe, has always held the subject of the miner's strike close to heart; this is mainly due to John's many writings on the topic.

Japan's Last Bid for Victory
Robert Lyman’s deep knowledge and understanding of the war in Burma, and the great battles at Kohima and Imphal in 1944, are well known. In this book he uses original documents, published works and personal accounts to weave together an enthralling account of some of the bitterest fighting of the Second World War. Not only does he use British sources for his research but he has also included material from the Naga tribes of north-east India, on whose land these battles were fought, and from Japanese accounts, including interviews with Japanese veterans of the fighting. Thus he has been able to produce what is arguably the most balanced history of the battles that were pivotal in ending the Japanese empire. Click here to view this extract.
