Beskrivelse af Memoirs Of Caroline Chisholm
Memoirs of Caroline Chisholm is a book that tells the story of Caroline Chisholm, a philanthropist who dedicated her life to helping the disadvantaged in India, Australia, and England during the 19th century. The book is written by Caroline Chisholm herself and was first published in 1852. The book begins with a brief introduction to Caroline's childhood and early life in England. It then goes on to describe her philanthropic work in India, where she helped British soldiers and their families who were struggling with poverty and illness. The majority of the book focuses on Caroline's time in Australia, where she became known as the ""emigrants' friend"" for her work in assisting immigrants who were arriving in the country. She established a shelter for women and children, provided advice and support to families, and helped to find employment for those who were struggling. The book also covers Caroline's return to England, where she continued her philanthropic work by advocating for the rights of women and children, and campaigning for the abolition of slavery. Overall, Memoirs of Caroline Chisholm provides a fascinating insight into the life of a remarkable woman who dedicated her life to helping others. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the social and political issues of the time, and is still relevant today as a testament to the power of philanthropy and activism.To Which Is Added A History Of The Family Colonization Loan Society, Also The Question, Who Ought To Emigrate?
