More about the book
Focusing on the lesser-known aspects of workhouse reform, this book explores a movement in mid- to late-nineteenth-century England that extended beyond prominent figures like Charles Dickens and Florence Nightingale. It addresses a significant gap in existing literature by investigating a concerted effort to influence workhouse administration and policy. By examining various voices and pressures that shaped institutional welfare, the work sheds light on contemporary attitudes and the dynamics of social reform during this period.
