Product Description

Review

Praise for Liverpool Miss: 'Records of hardship during the Thirties or earlier are not rare; but this has features that make it stand apart' Observer 'The story of a young girl's courage and perseverance against adversity! warm-hearted and excellent' Manchester Evening News


Product Description

The second volume of Helen Forrester's powerful, painful and ultimately uplifting four-volume autobiography of her poverty-stricken childhood in Liverpool during the Depression. The Forrester family are slowly winning their fight for survival. But fourteen-year-old Helen's personal battle is to persuade her parents to allow her to earn her own living, to lead her own life after the years of neglect and inadequate schooling while she cared for her six younger brothers and sisters. Her untiring struggles against illness caused by severe malnutrition and dirt (she has her first bath in four years) and, above all, the selfish demands of her parents, make this a story of amazing courage and perseverance.

5.0 out of 5 stars Inspiring, heartbreaking continuation of her story, Jul 14 2009
By K. White "whitebabe" (Calgary) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is the second in Helen Forrester's autobiographical series following Twopence to Cross the Mersey. She tells her story very matter-of-factly, with no trace of self-pity. I don't think I've ever been inspired by anyone as much as I have been by Helen Forrester. I know I will never feel sorry for myself again after reading her story. She was raised in the most appalling poverty but she rose above it and became a successful writer. I would love to meet her.
