Om The Life and Adventures of Michael Armstrong, the Factory Boy; Volume 3
Published in 1840, The Life and Adventures of Michael Armstrong, the Factory Boy is a social novel by British author Frances Milton Trollope. The book follows the life of Michael Armstrong, a young boy working in a textile factory in early 19th century England. Through Michael's story, Trollope exposes the harsh realities of factory life, child labor, and poverty during the Industrial Revolution. Despite being a work of fiction, the novel played an important role in shaping public opinion on these issues and contributed to legislative reforms that improved working conditions for factory workers and children in the UK.
