The Boarding-Out Of Pauper Children In Scotland, written by John Skelton and originally published in 1876, is a comprehensive study of the practice of boarding-out pauper children in Scotland during the 19th century. The book delves into the history of the practice, its development, and its implementation in various parts of Scotland. Skelton also examines the benefits of boarding-out for the children, the foster parents, and society as a whole, as well as the challenges and criticisms of the system. The book includes statistical data, personal accounts, and case studies to provide a thorough analysis of the boarding-out system. Skelton's work is considered a significant contribution to the study of child welfare and social policy in 19th century Scotland.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
