Description

 Everybody knows the sad tale of The Little Match Girl, but less well known is the story of the girls and women who slaved fourteen hours a day in the match factories for appalling pay, only to contract such fatal complaints as ‘phossy jaw’. The brutality of these conditions was brought to a head with the London Match-Girls Strike of 1888. Told from the perspective of a young factory worker, this major new My Story offers a fascinating insight into Victorian child labour.
