Book Description
First published in 1852, Robert Pashley's book offers a comprehensive history of pauperism in England from pre-Reformation poor relief provided by the Church to nineteenth-century poor-law statutes. By demonstrating the ineffectiveness of previous legislation, Pashley asserts the need for dramatic economic reform.
