Book Overview

Britain's Homes: A Study of the Empire's Heart Disease is a book written by George Haw and published in 1902. The book is a comprehensive study of the living conditions of the British people at the turn of the 20th century, with a particular focus on the impact of poor housing on the health of the population. Haw examines the various factors that contribute to the prevalence of heart disease in Britain, including overcrowding, poor ventilation, and inadequate sanitation. He also explores the social and economic factors that contribute to poor housing conditions, such as poverty, inequality, and urbanization. The book is based on extensive research and statistical analysis, and includes detailed descriptions of the living conditions in different parts of the country. Haw argues that the problem of poor housing is not only a health issue, but also a moral and social one, and calls for urgent action to improve the living conditions of the British people. Overall, Britain's Homes provides a fascinating insight into the social and health issues facing Britain at the turn of the 20th century, and remains a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of public health and housing in the UK.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
