The Service of the Poor is a book written by Caroline Emelia Stephen in 1871. The book is an inquiry into the reasons for and against the establishment of religious sisterhoods for charitable purposes. Stephen explores the role of women in charity work and the benefits and drawbacks of religious orders in providing aid to the poor. She examines the history of sisterhoods and their impact on society, as well as the motivations of those who join them. The book provides a detailed analysis of the social and religious factors that have influenced the establishment of religious sisterhoods and their work with the poor. It is a thought-provoking read that sheds light on the complex issues surrounding charity work and the role of women in society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
