Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Glimpses Into the Abyss The author has conducted social research for a number of years on an original plan. Securing a lodging where a destitute woman could be accommodated, and providing cleansing and dress, she has steadily taken in through a period of six years every case of complete destitution that came to her, willing to undergo remedial treatment. The work grew; accommodation for four was provided, with two paid helpers. The small cottage used acts as a social microscope, every case being personally investigated as to past life, history, and present need, and dealt with accordingly. The writer, as Secretary to the Ladies´ Committee of Oldham Workhouse, next became personally acquainted with the working of the Poor-law and studied it by means of books also.
