Beskrivelse af Eighteenth Century Waifs
""Eighteenth Century Waifs"" is a book written by John Ashton that explores the lives of some of the most vulnerable and marginalized members of society during the 18th century. The book focuses on the experiences of orphans, foundlings, and abandoned children, who were often left to fend for themselves in a world that offered little support or protection. Ashton provides a detailed account of the various ways in which these children were taken in and cared for, including through the work of charitable organizations, hospitals, and private individuals. He also examines the cultural attitudes and beliefs that shaped the treatment of these children, including the prevailing belief in the importance of ""discipline"" and ""hard work"" as a means of instilling moral values. Through a combination of historical research and personal anecdotes, ""Eighteenth Century Waifs"" offers a unique and insightful perspective on the lives of some of the most vulnerable members of society during a time of great social and economic change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
