The diary of Eliza Helsted, Manchester, 1842-1843. Eliza Helsted is a bright working-class girl living in Manchester in the middle of the 19th century. Her father's a weaver at the local mill. Eliza is soon to learn that she'll have to go to work in the mill as an assistant.

I have read this book

My favourite person in this book was Eliza because she was resilient when she was working at the mill and she saw great suffering. I would recommend this book to children age 8 to 16 .
