Resumen del Editor

Little boys, some as young as 6, spent their long days, not playing or studying, but sorting coal in dusty, loud, and dangerous conditions. Many of these breaker boys worked 10 hours a day, six days a week all for as little as 45 cents a day. Child labor was common in the United States in the 19th century. It took the compelling, heart breaking photographs of Lewis Hine and others to bring the harsh working conditions to light.

Hine and his fellow Progressives wanted to end child labor. He knew photography would reveal the truth and teach and change the world. With his camera, Hine showed people what life was like for immigrants, the poor, and the children working in mines, factories, and mills. In the words of an historian, the more than 7,000 photos Hine took of American children at work aroused public sentiment against child labor in a way that no printed page or public lecture could.

Terrible Editing

The Reader repeated sentences. And never completed sentences. Causing the listener to miss many points.

Recording skips all over

Not sure if anyone did a quality check, but the lady get cut off mid-sentence, and picks up again in a difference sentence. Feels like she read the whole thing, but then it was spliced and placed incorrectly together. Like she skips pages, but just keeps on reading…
Had to “read” this book for an assignment and listening to this was so frustrating

Good information but very frustrating!

The audiobook jumps all over the place with poorly placed captions interrupting the sentence. The production team clearly did not review their work. Read the actual book or you won’t understand the history being shared.

The story was not directed well. Cut out in the middle of sentences to describe pictures, then tried to pick up later…confusing

Would often cut and jump from pictures to story without explanation…very poorly directed. Don’t listen to it on audible, just read it.

Awful editing

Obviously the book has pictures. The reader read straight thru inserting captions in the middle of sentences. This caused difficulty in following the story. Captions were just repeated sentences from story so they should have been left out.
