Beskrivelse
Gerda: Or The Children Of Work is a novel written by Marie Sophie Schwartz and published in 1874. The story follows the life of Gerda, a young girl who is forced to work in a factory to support her family. Gerda's mother is ill and her father is unable to work, leaving Gerda to take on the responsibility of earning money for the family. Despite the harsh conditions of the factory, Gerda maintains a positive attitude and works hard to improve her situation. She befriends other children who work in the factory and together they form a bond that helps them cope with the challenges they face. As the story progresses, Gerda's determination and hard work pay off as she is able to improve her family's financial situation. However, she also faces setbacks and struggles, including the loss of a close friend and a serious injury. Throughout the novel, Schwartz highlights the plight of child laborers and the importance of education and social reform. Gerda's story serves as a powerful reminder of the struggles that many children faced during the Industrial Revolution and the need for change to improve their lives.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
