An Account of the Condition of the Infirmaries of London Workhouses is a historical book written by Ernest Abraham Hart in 1866. The book provides a detailed account of the conditions of workhouse infirmaries in London during the mid-19th century. The author, who was a physician and journalist, visited several workhouses and infirmaries to document the state of healthcare provided to the poor and sick.Hart's observations and descriptions of the workhouses and infirmaries are vivid and provide a glimpse into the harsh realities of life for the poor in Victorian London. He highlights the inadequate and unsanitary conditions of the facilities, the lack of medical staff and resources, and the mistreatment of patients. The author also comments on the social and political issues surrounding workhouses and the treatment of the poor, including the controversial New Poor Law of 1834.Overall, An Account of the Condition of the Infirmaries of London Workhouses is a significant historical document that sheds light on the harsh realities of poverty and healthcare in Victorian London. It is a valuable resource for historians, scholars, and anyone interested in the history of social welfare and healthcare in the UK.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
