 one of the most respected authorities on the David Baguley

Coal mines have become rare, but the miners of Germinal are immortal...[it] is an exquisite tribute to their work, their misery and their eventual revolt.”

Havelock Ellis

A great prose epic, as it has seemed to some, worthy to compare with the great verse epics of old.”

From the Publisher

"Superb."—Professor James Chastain, Ohio University

"This is far and away the best English translation of Germinal currently available. The translator has captured the nineteenth century flavor of the original without sacrificing clarity or meaning. The introduction and notes are excellent and the map of Montsou and vicinity is a stroke of genius."—Professor Richard Cumming, University of Utah
