Call Them In: The Story Of The Luke Street Girls������� Home, Dublin (1872) is a historical non-fiction book written by Elizabeth Jane Whately. The book is a detailed account of the establishment and functioning of the Luke Street Girls������� Home in Dublin, Ireland, in the year 1872. The book begins by providing an overview of the social and economic conditions of Dublin during the 19th century, which led to the rise of poverty and homelessness among young girls. It then goes on to describe the efforts of Elizabeth Jane Whately, the founder of the Luke Street Girls������� Home, in providing shelter, education, and vocational training to these girls.Through a series of personal anecdotes and interviews with the girls, the author paints a vivid picture of life in the Home and the impact it had on the lives of the girls who lived there. The book also explores the challenges faced by the Home, including financial struggles and societal prejudices against the girls.Overall, Call Them In: The Story Of The Luke Street Girls������� Home, Dublin (1872) is a poignant and inspiring account of one woman�������s mission to provide a safe haven for vulnerable young girls and empower them to build better lives for themselves.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
