"The Story of Bessie Costrell" by Mrs. Humphry Ward
Mrs Humphry Ward worked to improve education for the poor and became the founding President of the Women's National Anti-Suffrage League. In this book, she showcases the condition of women in her version of British society by telling the story of Bessie Costrell, the niece of a laborer. When his sister-in-law, Eliza, dies, and the town seems like it couldn't care less, it is to his niece he turns.
