Publisher's Synopsis

""How The Poor Live"" is a novel written by George Robert Sims, first published in 1883. The book is a collection of stories that depict the lives of the poor in London during the late 19th century. Sims was a journalist and social reformer who used his writing to raise awareness about the harsh living conditions of the working-class people in the city. The stories in the book are based on real-life experiences and observations of Sims, who spent a great deal of time in the slums of London. Through his writing, Sims highlights the struggles of the poor, including poverty, disease, crime, and social inequality. He also sheds light on the resilience and resourcefulness of the people who lived in these conditions. The book is an important historical document that provides insight into the social and economic conditions of Victorian London. It is a powerful reminder of the hardships faced by the poor and the need for social reform to address these issues.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
