Excerpt from Struggles for Life
I have endeavoured to illustrate truthfully in this work the terrible struggle for life which goes on around us. That struggle is Often horrible in its details. I have not dwelt on those horrors more forcibly than I considered necessary to awaken philanthropic action in the endeavour to ameliorate and remove them. The reception generally accorded to the first edition proves that the difficulties of the attempt have been justly appreciated by the reviewers.
There is much that is cheering, on the other hand, in the strenuous endeavours which civilization is everywhere making to remove the abuses of the past, and to alleviate the sufferings of the present.
