Leprosy and the Charity of the Church is a historical book written by L.W. Mulhane and originally published in 1896. The book explores the history of leprosy and its treatment by the church during the medieval period. It provides an in-depth analysis of the charity and compassion shown by the church towards lepers, who were considered outcasts and shunned by society. The book also discusses the various methods used by the church to care for lepers, including the establishment of leper houses and the use of charitable donations to provide food, clothing, and medical care. Mulhane's work sheds light on the important role played by the church in caring for those afflicted with leprosy and highlights the compassion and humanity that characterized the medieval period. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of medicine, religion, and social welfare.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
