Omschrijving

""Letters to the Right Honorable Lord John Russell, on the Expediency of Enlarging the Irish Poor-Law to the Full Extent of the Poor-Law of England"" is a book written by George Poulett Scrope in 1846. The book is a collection of letters addressed to Lord John Russell, a prominent British politician, advocating for the extension of the Irish Poor-Law to match that of England's. Scrope argues that the Irish Poor-Law, which was established in 1838, was insufficient in addressing the poverty and destitution faced by the Irish population. He suggests that the law should be expanded to provide greater relief to the poor and to prevent the spread of disease and crime. The book provides a detailed analysis of the Irish Poor-Law, its shortcomings, and the potential benefits of extending it. Scrope also discusses the political and economic factors that contributed to the poverty in Ireland and the need for government intervention. Overall, ""Letters to the Right Honorable Lord John Russell"" is a significant historical document that sheds light on the social and economic conditions of Ireland during the mid-19th century and the efforts to alleviate poverty through legislative means.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
