This book examines the representation of English working-class
children - the youthful inhabitants of the poor urban neighborhoods
that a number of writers dubbed "darkest England" - in Victorian
and Edwardian imperialist literature. In particular, Boone focuses
on how the writings for and about youth undertook an ideological
project to enlist working-class children into the British imperial
enterprise, demonstrating convincingly that the British
working-class youth resisted a nationalist identification process
that tended to eradicate or obfuscate class differences.
