Arthur has assembled hundreds of excerpts from private and public archives of Britain. Miners, millworkers, postmen, actresses, soldiers, bricklayers, shipbuilders, farm hands, seamstresses, footballers, and children working hard both in the factory and the schoolroom - all give rich and moving testimony of their day-to-day lives."

This collection gives voice to the forgotten figures that peopled the cities, factories and seasides of Edwardian Britain."--BOOK JACKET.
