Publisher's Synopsis

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, only to contract such fatal complaints as phossy jaw. Told from the perspective of a young factory worker, this new My Story offers a fascinating insight into Victorian child labour.
