Hereditary Peers And Hereditary Paupers

Hereditary Peers and Hereditary Paupers: The Two Extremes of English Society is a book written by Samuel Hughan in 1885. The book explores the stark contrast between the lives of the wealthy hereditary peers and the impoverished hereditary paupers in England during the 19th century.Hughan delves into the history of the English aristocracy and the ways in which their inherited wealth and status have enabled them to maintain their position of power throughout the centuries. He also examines the plight of the hereditary paupers, who were born into a life of poverty and often struggled to survive.Through a series of case studies and historical anecdotes, Hughan paints a vivid picture of the vast inequalities that existed within English society at the time. He argues that these inequalities were not only unjust, but also detrimental to the overall health and wellbeing of the nation.Despite being written over a century ago, Hereditary Peers and Hereditary Paupers remains a relevant and insightful analysis of the class divide in English society. It provides a valuable historical perspective on the ongoing struggle for social justice and equality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
