Book excerpt: He would have seen girls and boys of only six years old just a year older than him bundled into carts and transported like cattle, often hundreds of miles away, to work in the factories and mills of Britain's industrial heartlands, where they would be beaten as they laboured 16 hours a day in exchange for a few spoonfuls of gruel.
