BOOTH (General William)
In Darkest England and The Way Out.
In-8, pleine percaline éditeur (lég. défraîchie, loose hinges), 285 p., xxxi p. et (6) p. de catalogue éditeur, grande planche dépliante en couleurs. Édition originale. Par le fondateur de l'Armée du Salut. "[Booth] analysed the causes of pauperism and vice of he period, and proposed a remedy by ten expedients. These included land settlement, emigration, rescue work among prostitutes and at the prison-gate, the poor man's bank, and the poor man's lawyer. Money was liberally subscribed and a large part of the scheme was carried through" (P.M.M., 373). "His book In Darkest England And The Way Out not only caused a sensation after its 1890 release, but it set the foundation for modern social welfare schemes". Provenance "J. Herbert Lewis" avec cachet sur la première garde.
