Publisher's Synopsis

""The Helping Hand"" is a book written by Caroline Matilda Kirkland in 1853. It is a detailed account of the Home for Discharged Female Convicts and an appeal on behalf of the institution. The book sheds light on the struggles of female convicts after their release from prison and the challenges they face in reintegrating into society. Kirkland provides a comprehensive description of the Home, its facilities, and the services it offers to support the women in their transition back to normal life. She also highlights the importance of such institutions in preventing recidivism and promoting rehabilitation. The book is a compelling read that offers valuable insights into the social and cultural issues of the time and remains relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
