Bag om Short Sermons To News Boys

""Short Sermons To News Boys: With A History Of The Formation Of The News Boys������� Lodging House"" is a book written by Charles Loring Brace in 1866. The book is a collection of short sermons that were delivered to newsboys in New York City during the mid-19th century. The sermons were meant to provide moral guidance and inspiration to these young boys who often lived in poverty and had to sell newspapers to make a living.In addition to the sermons, the book also includes a history of the formation of the News Boys������� Lodging House, which was established by Brace in 1854. The lodging house provided a safe and clean place for newsboys to sleep at night, as well as access to education and other resources to help them improve their lives.The book is a fascinating look at the social issues of the time, including poverty, child labor, and the struggles of immigrant families. It provides insight into the efforts of reformers like Brace to help those in need and improve the conditions of the city's poorest residents.Overall, ""Short Sermons To News Boys: With A History Of The Formation Of The News Boys������� Lodging House"" is an important historical document that sheds light on a little-known aspect of American history and provides valuable lessons about compassion, social justice, and the power of community.This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.
