This is a new release of the original 1938 edition.
1938. The tang of salt air scents the pages of this book. The story
of a boy swept at an early age into the torrent of life, Lower
Class moves one deeply with its picture of courageous but simple
people struggling for a meager existence. Although much of the
story is brutal and rough, there is an undercurrent of idealism
beneath it that raises the book to one of inspirational worth.
Characters of the poorer classes of England are portrayed here with
deft sharpness. A way of life almost unknown in America is
presented in simple, forceful prose that absorbs the reader to the
last page.
