For those wishing to know: a popular, journalistic take on the social ills
of London in the 1880's. There's not a lot that's first-hand observation,
but it does give an idea of what London society felt were the pressing
issues. Amongst the ills considered are child neglect, prostitution etc.
All the best,
David,
Sunny england when it's meant to be cloudy
