About The Book
‘The twenty-seven autobiographies are in three sections, « The Labouring Classes » (the most vivid), « Domestic Servants » (not all like Upstairs Downstairs) and « Skilled Workers » (the most self-assured)… Without exception they are vivid, arresting and thoroughly readable.’
— The Times Educational Supplement
‘An anonymous navvy in 1830 writes of his drinking and tramping; a farm labourer remembers his amusement at the coming of machines around 1870; Lucy Luck, a straw-plait worker, remembers her days in the union workhouse and her fight for some sort of dignity in marriage… the writers speak for themselves’
