About this film

LibriVox recording of A NEW ENGLAND GIRLHOOD: OUTLINED FROM MEMORY by LUCY LARCOM. Lucy Larcom was an American poet, teacher, and mill-worker. According to Wikipedia: "Larcom served as a model for the change in women's roles in society." This is her colorful autobiography. Here, she tells about her happy childhood, and her time working in the mill. Along the way, she speaks about topics like morality, independence, love and loss inside a family, a strong belief in god, and the effects of being poor.
