Abstract
Boos sketches the life-trajectories and publication histories of three working-class women poets during the Victorian period. She discusses "Marie," whose work appeared in the London "People's Journal" from 1846 to 1850; Janet Hamilton, a Scottish poet whose essays appeared in Cassell's "The Working-Man's Friend" and its supplements from 1850-1853; and Fanny Forrester, who published sixty-odd poems in "Ben Brierley's Journal" between 1870 and 1876.
