Victorian Tales: The Twisted Tunnels by Terry Deary
Jenny and her grandfather are toshers. They survive by finding things in the sewer - anything they can sell, and they can sell almost anything. It's a horrible life, but they are managing. Until the building of the London Underground Railway destroys huge parts of the slums and takes away even their meagre home. Fascinating story of the human cost of the Underground.
Factual, funny and delightfully illustrated* Irish Examiner *
