The Case of Mr Locraft Chapter II in 1823
A first person memoir recounts poverty and early life in 1823 England and America. Luke Locraft narrates fits of misfortune from stints as a tinker’s drudge to cabin boy and strolling actor. He recalls Juliet Kerrans, a stage romance, her father's opposition, and his failed bid for London work.
