Reviews

Assembled by three distinguished historians of poverty this volume consists of an introduction and ten essays, mostly focussing on Britain and Germany (three chapters each) but also including chapters on Ireland, Austria, Denmark and Sweden ... anyone with a research interest in this field will find plenty of food for thought ... there is much of value here, therefore, and the volume's production in reasonably priced paperback format brings it within the ordinary scholar's reach. -- Joanna Innes, University of Oxford, UK * Family & Community History (Vol. 16.2) *
