Life of Octavia Hill
The letters of social reformer Octavia Hill (1838-1912) reveal the human side to an extremely able administrator.
Octavia Hill
Octavia Hill was a key figure in the open spaces and housing movement and one of the founders of the National Trust. Her legacy continues today in the form of many active bodies such as the modern National Trust, the Open Spaces Society and the Family Welfare Association. First published in 1928, this work is a collection of Octavia Hill’s early letters, edited by her sister Emily Southwood Maurice. The letters throw considerable light on the difficulties she encountered in the tenements and how she first realised the principles on which she would later act. This book will be of interest to those studying the history of social welfare and poverty.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Three Victorian Women who Changed Their World
This provocative study examines the lives of three 19th-century English reformers, each of whom was also a gifted amateur theologian. Based on their writings and existing transcripts of their speeches, the author demonstrates the role religious faith played as a source of their social vision and their struggles to make that vision a reality.
