• Tony Oldham (1998): The Forest of Dean in the Mining Journal and other References, [1998] 18 pp illus.
  One of my favourite pastimes is reading The Mining Journal. I started at the beginning, Vol. 1 1835 and being a slow reader, I have only got as far as 1851, although I have flittered through later journals as well. Using quantity as a yardstick, rather than quality I tend to rate each entry by length instead of content. Often, I have quoted verbatim, and if I remember, this is enclosed in inverted commas. Col or column refers to the length, or part of the length of a page, about 16 inches. I have used the GBP sign instead of the small letter L [cf lamina] and tried to retain original punctuation. Three full stops, [thus ... ] denotes a Mogadon attack or lack of interest and I have omitted a small or large chunk of text. This bibliography not only covers the Forest of Dean Mines, but includes its mine workers, mine owners, the Mushets - the legendary iron smelters, and to a lesser extent the railways. This is not just a boring index but a pot-pourri of anecdotes, like the two men who survived a 510 foot plunge down a shaft when the rope broke. How? Sorry, you will have to buy the book!

• Tony Oldham (2003): The Mines of Ireland, [June 2003] i + 45 pp, surveys. Until the publication of the first edition of this book some years ago, very little was known about the mines of Ireland. By researching scientific [and the not so scientific] journals I have accumulated a wealth of information on the mines both north and south of the border from Bronze age to present day. For each mine a short description is given, followed by a list of references, and if known the NGR. A recent visit describes the present day remains. I have also attempted to provide eejit proof directions for finding the mines. Useful reference work.
