''Signals of Distress'' is a book written by Blanchard Jerrold and published in 1863. The book is a collection of stories and observations about the conditions of various institutions in Victorian England, including refuges, homes of charity, industrial schools, and reformatories. Jerrold describes the harsh living conditions and mistreatment of the residents in these institutions, particularly children and women. He also comments on the lack of government oversight and the need for reform in the social welfare system. The book is a powerful critique of the Victorian era’s treatment of vulnerable individuals and a call to action for social change. Overall, ''Signals of Distress'' is a significant work of social history and a valuable resource for understanding the social issues of Victorian England.In Refuges And Homes Of Charity; In Industrial Schools And Reformatories; At Invalids������� Dinner Tables, And In The Homes Of The Little Sisters Of The Poor; In Bethnal Green, And St. George�������s, Hanover Square; In The Wake Of District Visitors; Among The Fallen, The Vicious, The Criminal; Where Missionaries Travel, Where Good Samaritans Have Clothed The Naked; Among The Shoe-Blacks And The Rag-Brigades, Etc.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
