Salem Street by Anna Jacobs
Salem Street was not a place for dreams. Huddled in the shadow of the cotton mills of 19th century England, Salem Street was a place of hard reality: a place of narrow houses that shut out the light, of pale children in patched clothes, and women old before their time. But Annie Gibson did have a dream. She dreamed of the sun and the sea, a home of her own, and a life of self-respect. And with the help of the most unlikely of men, Annie Gibson was determined to make her dream come true.
