Abstract

Carolyn Tuttle has thoroughly researched children's labor, and, in the process, women's labor, in the factories and mines of industrializing Britain. While some of her interpretations will leave questions in the minds of historians, her work makes an important contribution to our understanding of nineteenth-century women's and children's labor.
