'Several generations of the English working class grew up in the shadow of the workhouse, with those individuals who were in insecure employment, badly paid, or unfortunate enough to be widowed, orphaned or deserted, fearing incarceration there and thus being tainted by the epithet pauper. Children formed the largest group of indoor paupers in Victorian England yet their story has never been fully told. Using one county's experience to illuminate national trends, this book investigates the treatment of children in the workhouses of the thirteen Worcestershire Poor Law Unions, in the period 1834 to 1871, although it also refers to their situation between 1780 and 1834, in an attempt to recreate a detailed image of life for infant and child pauper inmates.' Sutton Studies in Modern British History series. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall. Book. Codice articolo 045851
