The degenerates / J. Albert Mann.

Mann, J. Albert, (author.).

Summary:

1928. At the Massachusetts School for the Feeble-Minded, Maxine is doing everything she can to protect her younger sister Rose. Vicious attendants and bullying older girls treat them as the morons, imbeciles, and idiots the doctors have deemed them to be. Alice was left there when her brother couldn't bring himself to support a sister with a club foot. London was dragged there from the best foster situation she's ever had, thanks to one unexpected, life altering moment. But each girl is determined to change her fate, no matter what it takes. -- adapted from jacket
