Notes
"Investigates the treatment of children in the workhouses of the thirteen Worcestershire Poor Law unions, in the period 1834 to 1871, although it also refers to their situation between 1780 and 1834. ... The thirteen Poor Law unions chosen for investigation in this book were those named after places in the county of Worcestershire. Worcestershire was a predominantly rural county in the early nineteenth century"--P. xi-xii
