解説

First Edition. 3 vols. 8vo, iv, [5]-452, [1]: vi, [7]-452; viii, 495pp, contemporary modern boards, uncut. A distinctly rare work, devoted to the problems of poverty and the reforms essential for its alleviation. There are numerous relevant extracts from Blackstone, Adam Smith and Poor Law reports but more than 300 pages are devoted to original material: accounts of Friendly Societies (with sample forms), Sunday Schools, work programmes and savings banks (with specimens of accounts); a report by the Society on its educational methods based, interestingly, on that of the Madras school, and occupational training. This substantial and forward-thinking provincial production was edited by one William Dixon, who signs himself a "Visitor of the Poor." No copy in America, and BL and Goldsmiths' Library copies only in the British Isles
