Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Between 1868 and 1924, 80,000 British children, most of them under fourteen, came to Canada to be apprenticed as labourers and domestic servants. Joy Parr's study of these children, first published in 1980, became a significant resource for courses in women's history, family history, immigration history, and labour history. Out of print for several years, Labouring Children now has a substantial new introduction in which the author examines the historiography of the history of childhood, particularly in the light of recent literature on sexuality and the post-structuralist critique. She also considers recent popular historical views of children and their relationship to professional history.
