Publisher's Synopsis

Twenty-One Years In S. George�������s Mission is a historical account written by Charles Fuge Lowder in 1877. The book details the creation and evolution of S. George�������s Mission, a charitable organization established in the mid-19th century to serve the impoverished and marginalized communities of London�������s East End. Lowder, a prominent Anglican clergyman, founded the mission in 1859 and served as its leader for over two decades. Through a combination of religious outreach, education, and practical aid, S. George�������s Mission sought to improve the lives of those living in poverty and squalor. The book provides a detailed chronicle of the mission�������s activities, including its various educational and social programs, as well as its efforts to provide medical care and relief to the sick and destitute. Lowder also discusses the challenges and obstacles faced by the mission, including opposition from local authorities and the difficulties of working in such a deprived and dangerous environment. Overall, Twenty-One Years In S. George�������s Mission is a fascinating historical document that sheds light on the social and religious landscape of 19th-century London, as well as the efforts of dedicated individuals to improve the lives of the city�������s most vulnerable residents.With An Appendix.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
