The Better Administration of the Poor Law is a book written by William Chance in 1895. The book deals with the administration of the Poor Law in England and Wales, which was a system of relief for the poor that had been in place since the 16th century. The author argues that the system was in need of reform, and that the current administration was not doing enough to help those in need. Chance provides a detailed analysis of the history of the Poor Law, and how it had evolved over the centuries. He also examines the current state of the system, and highlights areas where improvements could be made. The author argues that the administration of the Poor Law should be more efficient and effective, and that the needs of the poor should be better understood and addressed. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which deals with a different aspect of the Poor Law. Topics covered include the role of the Board of Guardians, the provision of relief to the poor, the treatment of the sick and infirm, and the education of children. Chance also discusses the impact of the Poor Law on society as a whole, and how it could be reformed to better serve the needs of the poor. Overall, The Better Administration of the Poor Law is a comprehensive and insightful analysis of the Poor Law system in England and Wales. It provides a valuable historical perspective on the development of the system, and offers practical suggestions for how it could be improved to better serve the needs of the poor.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
