Reels and Spindles: A Story of Mill Life
Reels and Spindles, published in 1900, is a story for girls by Evelyn Raymond about Amy Kaye, a young woman who must find a way to help the people she loves when money runs short. It opens with Amy and her strong-willed white burro, Pepita, arguing over which road to take, a path that leads her down to a mill in a glen. There she seizes a humble opportunity, learns to spin and faces the hard facts of factory work with determination, while family troubles, local feuds and new friendships unfold around her. Raymond states the moral plainly in her preface, that one sincere girl can do much good, and the novel pairs domestic incident with a picture of mill life.
