The home children : their personal stories

Harrison, Phyllis, 1918- (Added Author).

Summary: "From 1870 to 1930 British 'Home' children - over 100,000 of them - arrived to work on Canadian farms. Travelling in groups of up to four hundred, their worldly possessions in smal metal trunks, they came from the discipline of British 'Homes' to the land that was believed to offer the best hope for their future. Many of them are still living; their personal stories have been compiled and edited by Phyllis Harrison." --book jacket
