| dc.description.abstract |
This paper considers a group of songs by Australian singer- songwriter Michael (Mick) Thomas that deal with the subject of abandoned mining towns. It considers these songs in the context of a disussion of how personal stories or tales are taken as illustrative of the wider political and social issues arising from the closure or abandonment of such towns. | |
