Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, published in 1854, is a compelling examination of the severe health risks faced by Irish immigrants during the 19th century transatlantic crossings. The author, a US Senator, investigates the harrowing and deplorable conditions that led to illness, disease, and death aboard these ships. With great detail, the author investigates the three main diseases affecting passengersâ"typhus, cholera, and smallpoxâ"and explores the ways these conditions were caused and spread. Through eyewitness accounts and the author's own expert analysis, this book exposes the relationship between overcrowding, poor sanitation, and inadequate food on ships. It reveals how unscrupulous ship owners put profits over the lives of the passengers, who were often fleeing Ireland due to famine and poverty. The book goes on to discuss the urgent need for legislation and regulations to improve the safety and health of immigrants during these dangerous journeys. It serves as a powerful historical document that sheds light on the plight and struggles faced by Irish immigrants in the mid-19th century and advocates for human dignity and justice. 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 9781331620983_0
