In 1835 Lucy Larcon went to work in the Mills in Massachusetts. Lucy spent ten years working in the mills and during that time she wrote poems and songs about mill life. Her works brought attention to the conditions the mill workers endured. This book is an excellent example of the life of a child in the 19th century.
