They thought us primitive, and looked down on us. Winifred Foley grew up in the 1920s, a bright, determined miners daughter in a world of unspoiled beauty and desperate hardship, in which women were widowed at 30 and children died of starvation. Living hand-to-mouth in a tumbledown cottage in the Forest of Dean, Foley-\"our Poll\"-had a loving family and the woods and streams of a forest \"better than heaven\" as a playground. But a brother and sister were dead in infancy, bread had to be begged from kindly neighbors, and she never had a new pair of shoes or a shop-bought doll. And most terrible of all, like her sister before her, at 14 little Poll had to leave her beloved forest for the city, bound for a life in service among Londons grey terraces.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51929812926752,"sku":"NEW0349122180","price":24.85,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/full-hearts-and-empty-bellies-a-1920s-childhood-from-the-forest-of-dean-to-the-streets-of-london-0349122180","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
