Book Details
First Sentence
"IN THE SUMMER of 1865, the reform-minded medical journal the Lancet commissioned three doctors,led by Ernest Hart, to investigate the deplorable conditions of infirmaries attached to London's forty-three Poor Law Union Workhouses, those despised institutions of last resort for the indigent, the disabled, the aged, and the sick of the metropolis."
