Publisher's Synopsis

""A Plan For The Establishment Of Charity-Houses For Exposed Or Deserted Women And Girls, And For Penitent Prostitutes"" is a book written by J. Massie in 1758. The book is a proposal for the establishment of charity houses for women and girls who have been abandoned or exposed, as well as for those who have turned to prostitution and wish to reform. The author suggests that these women should be provided with a safe and secure place to live, as well as with education and training to help them find employment and become self-sufficient. The book also discusses the need for moral and religious education, as well as for medical care and support. It is a valuable historical document that sheds light on the social and moral issues of the time, and provides insight into the efforts to address them.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
