About This Book

A granddaughter offers a personal and documentary account of her grandfather, a physician who combined clinical practice with public campaigning for sanitary reform. The narrative interweaves childhood recollections with descriptions of his education and medical publications, his work in fever hospitals and on factory and Poor Law inquiries, investigations linking disease to overcrowding and unsanitary conditions, and his service on government health bodies during cholera outbreaks. Chapters trace philanthropic inquiries and reports on mines, housing, and child labor, and chronicle the decade-long effort to secure public-health legislation, emphasizing steady character, methodical investigation, and sustained commitment to social improvement.
