The Cry of the Poor: Being the True and Faithful Account of a Three Months Tour Amongst the Pariahs of the Kingdoms, of England, Scotland, and ... of the Nineteenth Century (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Excerpt from The Cry of the Poor: Being the True and Faithful Account of a Three Months Tour Amongst the Pariahs of the Kingdoms, of England, Scotland, and Ireland, During the Last Half Year of the Nineteenth Century
It was to be no Sentimental Journey, a Squalid Journey rather, undertaken at a time when the Kingdoms, flushed with the joy of a great triumph, were dreaming of universal empire; at a time when it was common talk that the anglo-saxon sway should, for the benefit of mankind, be ex tended all over the World. It was there fore an opportune moment to investigate in the deeper depths of British life what might be the defects of this social system, and this with no other motive, either on my publishers' part or on my own, than to draw attention to certain deplorable con ditions, with a view to their remedy. I was to visit the poor in each of the towns which were to be the halting-places of my Squalid Journey, to see them in their homes and at their work, to ascertain how they lived, and on what, and what might be the possible means for improving their position.
