The fifth of eight children, Alfred Williams grew up in conditions of harsh, rural poverty. He became a 'half-timer' at the age of eight and at fifteen he joined his elder brothers in the great railway works of GWR in Swindon. His experience of life in these factories is vividly described in this book.
