Description

"The images captured by the American photographer Lewis W. Hine are at once unusual and disturbing. His early 20th-century pictures of children selling newspapers, working on the assembly line, or digging in the fields are still moving evidence of America's dark side at the beginning of the century, when for many children there was little time for childhood."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
