'A Defence Of The Charity-Schools' by William Hendley is a powerful response to critics of the charity school movement in the early 18th century. Specifically, Hendley addresses and refutes the objections raised by the author of 'The Fable of the Bees' (Bernard Mandeville) and Cato’s Letter in the British Journal of June 15, 1723. This book offers insights into the social and religious debates surrounding education and poverty during the period. Hendley passionately defends the role of charity schools in providing education to the poor and instilling religious values. He argues against the claims that such education is detrimental to society. This book presents a valuable historical perspective on the development of educational thought and social welfare systems.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
