The Indusrial Revolution and it's effects on childhood.: Children at beginning of industrial age

» Sunbear - Children at beginning of industrial age

Thanks for a most interesting, well-written article.

As a fan of Dickens I am familiar with much of what you write. I consider Dickens one of the truly great men of history for his wonderful novels and characters by also for his part in caring for working class people. He was quite influential in the reform movement.

Industrializations impact on rural Britain is so wonderfully delineated in the works of Hardy also.

I lived in Britain for a while in my youth, and I like following your writing as a link to your country and fascinating history. We in the colonies do cherist our British heritage.

Thanks again,
Tom Martin
