The Black Country Society of England defines "Black Country" as "that area of South Staffordshire and North Worcestershire (excluding Birmingham) which was on the famous 30 foot seam of coal." I couldn't find an original web site for this, but a UK store has it available
here. A sample of the Gospels is "Wile the shepuds wus waatchin' oover thayer flocks..a brite lite shon all rahnd 'em. It day 'arf put the wind up 'em"
