Publisher's Synopsis
This historical account of the Magdalene charity, which provided a home for reformed prostitutes in 18th-century London, is a fascinating glimpse into a little-known aspect of social history. Dodd's detailed descriptions of the charity's activities and the lives of its residents offer a moving tribute to the human capacity for redemption.
