In 1999 the Kvaerner Govan shipyard in Glasgow stood on the verge of closure. Twelve hundred workers would be thrown onto the scrap heap. At that moment a little known union convenor at the yard decided to tilt at windmills and lead a campaign to save those jobs. Jamie Webster kept a diary of the struggle and now reveals for the first time the full story of how the world famous Govan shipyard was pulled back from the brink. pp xi + 402. A nice clean copy.
