| Description |
From the Whitbred Award winning novel by Jamila Gavin. Offers an extraordinary insight into the often dark and brutal world of mid-eighteenth-century London and especially the vulnerability of children. It reveals historical details like black balling, and the literal lottery by which babies were chosen to be either taken into the Foundling Hospital or cast aside. |
