Excerpt from The Betrayal of the Slums
The pledges in question were of a very definite character, and were often repeated. They were embodied in a precise form in the Housing and Town Planning Act of 1919, and the records of the proceedings thereon bear witness to the fact that one of the difficulties of the Minister in charge of the Bill was to resist proposals which would have made the task exceed the limits of any possible form of execution. The intention of the Government to persevere in this effort was very clearly stated to the people in the manifesto of the Prime Minister and Mr. Bonar Law when their support was solicited at the General Election of 1918.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the devastating effects of slum living on families in the early 20th century.

They uncover the staggering numbers of inhabitants living in one or two-room houses, often lacking basic amenities and with more than two individuals per room. The author argues that these conditions lead to tragic consequences, including widespread disease and diminished physical and mental capacity. The book provides a sobering look at the need for government intervention and the transformative power of improved housing. Providing historical context and thematic depth, it argues for the importance of addressing the root causes of slum living to improve the lives of individuals and society as a whole.
