Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book chronicles the controversies surrounding Reverend L.M. Pease and the Five Points of New York City in the 1850s. As a pioneering reformer, Pease dedicated his life to assisting the deprived population of the notorious Five Points slum. His radical approach involved blending spiritual guidance with practical aid, providing shelter, job training, and other forms of tangible support to uplift individuals from their desperate circumstances. However, Pease's methods sparked fierce opposition from the Methodist Mission, leading to accusations of financial improprieties and moral failings. Drawing on records, first-hand accounts, and the author's personal knowledge, this book meticulously examines these accusations and their underlying motives. It explores the complex relationship between religious and secular approaches to social welfare and sheds light on the challenges faced by reformers seeking to address the root causes of poverty and inequality. Ultimately, the book highlights the timeless struggle between compassion and condemnation, offering a sobering examination of the obstacles encountered by those who dare to challenge societal norms and dedicate their lives to uplifting the marginalized. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
