A Plea For Ragged Schools: Or Prevention Better Than Cure is a book written by Thomas Guthrie in 1847. The book is a passionate plea for the establishment of ragged schools, which were schools that provided education to poor and underprivileged children who would otherwise not have access to education. Guthrie argues that prevention is better than cure, and that by providing these children with an education, they can be prevented from falling into a life of poverty, crime, and disease. The book is a powerful indictment of the social and economic conditions of the time, and calls for a radical change in the way society views and treats its most vulnerable members. Guthrie’s writing is both eloquent and persuasive, and his arguments are backed up by extensive research and personal experience. Overall, A Plea For Ragged Schools is a compelling and thought-provoking book that remains relevant today as a call to action on behalf of the most marginalized members of society.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world’s literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
