Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book began with a ceremony that commenced the building of a new hospital on Wards Island to serve as a surgical facility for recently arrived immigrants. The hospital was built to accommodate the increase of patients and to organize care in a more efficient manner, with the latest technology and practices of the day. While the book provides a detailed historical account of the project, it also makes a larger point about the arrival and care of immigrants in the United States at the time: namely, that the services provided were not always humane. Prior to the establishment of this hospital, immigrant wards were often poorly maintained, overcrowded, and unsanitary. By detailing the process of building this hospital, the author of this book has illuminated the contrast between those earlier conditions and the steady movement towards improving the systems of care for immigrants in the years leading up to the Civil War. The book is a testament to both the struggles and the triumphs of a group of people who, despite facing adversity and difficult circumstances, were able to improve their lot and make life better for the next generations of immigrants to come. 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 9781528329972_0
