A Girl of the People is a novel written by L. T. Meade, first published in 1890. The story follows the life of a young girl named Phyllis Flowerdew, who is born into poverty in the slums of London. Despite her difficult circumstances, Phyllis is a bright and determined child, and she dreams of one day escaping her impoverished life and achieving success.As Phyllis grows up, she faces many challenges and obstacles, including poverty, illness, and discrimination. However, she remains determined to succeed, and with the help of her friends and family, she is able to overcome these obstacles and achieve her dreams.The novel explores themes of class, poverty, and social mobility, and it provides a vivid portrayal of life in the slums of Victorian London. It also highlights the resilience and determination of the human spirit, and the power of friendship and community to overcome adversity.Overall, A Girl of the People is a compelling and inspiring story that offers a glimpse into the lives of those who lived in poverty in Victorian London, and the struggles they faced to achieve a better life.On this particular night she had seen to the dying Mrs. Granger's comforts, had said a word or two to Bet on her exit from the house, and then walked rapidly down Sparrow Street to the first tramcar which went in the direction of her home. A girl of her acquaintance got in also at the same moment, and the two sat side by side talking on subjects of mutual interest. The car was full; and a rough-looking sailor, of the lowest type of face, was crushed up close to Sister Mary. She sat with her back partly to him, and discoursed with eagerness to her companion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
