Songs of innocence : the story of British childhood
Abrams, Fran2012
Book
As recently as 100 years ago, British children existed in ways now unthinkable; boys as young as 8 worked gruelling hours in unlit factories and girls were sold into sexual slavery with dolls still in their grasp. This book charts the transformation of childhood in the UK from early Victorian times.
