An Exposure, From Personal Observation, Of Female Prostitution In London, Leeds And Rochdale, And Especially In The City Of Glasgow (1843) is a book written by William Logan. The book provides a detailed and eye-opening account of the rampant practice of female prostitution in various cities in the United Kingdom during the 19th century. Logan, who was a social reformer and activist, conducted extensive research and personal observations to shed light on the plight of women who were forced into prostitution due to poverty, lack of education, and other social and economic factors. The book exposes the harsh realities of the lives of these women, including the abuse and exploitation they faced at the hands of clients and pimps. The author also highlights the inadequate measures taken by the government and law enforcement agencies to address this issue. The book serves as a powerful critique of the prevailing social and economic conditions of the time and is a testament to the author's commitment to social justice and equality.With Remarks On The Cause, Extent, Results, And Remedy Of The Evil.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
