Keeping Their Place
In 1851 there were over a million servants in Britain. This book reveals tales of servants, who often had to rise hours before dawn to lay fires, heat water and prepare meals for their employers, and then work into the small hours. It contains stories of personal devotion, and reward, and of how the servants enjoyed themselves in their time off.
