Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book sheds light on the devastating impact of the law, orphan mistreatment, and the inadequacy of the justice system in 19th century England. The author argues that unjust and inadequate laws, rather than making people virtuous, exert a powerful influence for evil. Through thought-provoking examples, the author demonstrates how laws can create recklessness, improvidence, degradation, and suffering among the poor, particularly orphaned children. The book also examines the devastating consequences of overcrowding, lack of proper housing, drunkenness, and the state's failure to enforce the duties of men to their families. Filled with compelling evidence, this book is a powerful indictment of the social and legal failures of its time, highlighting the urgent need for reform to protect the vulnerable and ensure justice for all.
