Child Labor in Britain |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| Child labor was prevalent in Britain during the late 18th century, when children sometimes worked up to 16 hours a day. Conditions were often dangerous—especially for those who worked in mines—and the children usually received little formal education. | ||||||
