'Historical Sketch Of The Soldier’s Home In The City Of Philadelphia' offers a detailed look at the origins and development of this important institution. Founded in the wake of the Civil War, the Soldier’s Home emerged from the efforts of the Cooper Shop Volunteer Refreshment Committee, which began its work in May 1861. This book traces the incorporation of the Soldier’s Home on April 9, 1864, and its subsequent role in providing aid and comfort to soldiers. Ferdinand L. Sarmiento provides valuable insights into the organization’s establishment, its mission, and the vital services it rendered during a tumultuous period in American history. This historical sketch serves as a testament to the dedication and compassion of those who sought to support the soldiers returning from war, making it a significant contribution to the understanding of Civil War-era philanthropy and social support 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.
