A Plan For The Establishment Of Charity-Houses For Exposed Or Deserted Women And Girls, And For Penitent Prostitutes (1758) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781120126139)

""A Plan For The Establishment Of Charity-Houses For Exposed Or Deserted Women And Girls, And For Penitent Prostitutes"" is a book written by J. Massie in 1758. The book outlines a plan for the establishment of charity houses that would provide shelter and support for women and girls who had been abandoned or exposed to danger, as well as those who had engaged in prostitution and were seeking to repent and reform their lives. The book argues that such charity houses would be a necessary and beneficial addition to society, providing a safe and supportive environment for vulnerable women and helping to reduce the prevalence of prostitution and its associated harms. The book is a historical document that sheds light on the social and cultural attitudes towards women and prostitution in 18th century England, and provides insight into the efforts made by some individuals to improve the lives of marginalized women.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
