Description: Small edition of conditions and workings of children having been caught and sent to Reformatory School to learn discipline and trades.
Notes: I, from Australia, have included a brief description of the book by Joan Rimmer, with no intent to discredit her copyright, for the reader. The story or compilation is or has been located in Lancashire, UK and included the time of National Service for children located at the Liverpool Reformatory School for children, later converted to the Red Bank School. The book describes or shows the workings, hardships and other means encountered by the children whilst being "conditioned" or "rehabilitated" for the so-called "crimes committed" by them during that era.
