Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book eloquently and compassionately describes the misery and destitution faced by thousands of poor children in the mid-nineteenth century city of Edinburgh. The author, a minister in the city, argues that these children, many of whom are orphaned or abandoned, are being failed by the current system of education and welfare. The author proposes a radical solution: the establishment of "Ragged Schools" where these children would be provided with not only education but also food, clothing, and shelter. The author argues that this is the only way to break the cycle of poverty and crime that is blighting the lives of these children. The book provides a powerful and moving account of the lives of these children and the challenges they face. It is also a passionate call for social reform and a reminder of the importance of compassion and kindness in the face of suffering. The author's insights into the causes and consequences of poverty are still relevant today. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331310518_0
