Horrible jobs of the industrial revolution

Horrible jobs of the industrial revolution

Leon Gray

About this book

"The Industrial Revolution brought about great changes, but this was a time before many labor laws, and many children had to work from sunup to sundown. The poor had to work as rat catchers and coal miners! Readers will take in important historical context as they learn all about these and other horrible jobs of the era."--
