A propos de cet article

1969 reprint of the 1902 revised edition. All five volumes have usual ex-library markings and slight edgewear unless otherwise noted. Volume one has 324 pages including an index. Light edgewear at spine ends and corners, with 1-inch blue ink mark across outer edge of book block. Volume 2 has 235 pages plus a 60-page appendix classifying and describing the population of London by school board blocks and divisions, followed by an index. Volume 3 has 310 pages including an index. Volume 4 has 354 pages including an index. Volume 5 serves primarily as a slipcase for 5 full-colour descriptive maps of London poverty in 1889: north-eastern, north-western, south-western, south-eastern, and a more general map showing degrees of poverty in London. Maps appear never to have been unfolded. 1.5-inch tear of slipcase lining at inner spine, light wear at lower spine and tiny bumps at corners. "Charles Booth was one of those remarkable English Victorians who can justly be described as one of the great and the good. Profoundly concerned by contemporary social problems, and not a pious nor even a religious man, he recognised the limitations of philanthropy and conditional charity in addressing the poverty which scarred British society.

Oversized set of books may require additional shipping.…
