Social Work in London, 1869 to 1912: A History of the Charity Organization Society is a book written by Helen Dendy Bosanquet in 1914. The book provides a comprehensive history of the Charity Organization Society (COS) in London during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The COS was a pioneering organization in the field of social work, which aimed to relieve poverty and distress by providing organized charity and promoting self-help. The book traces the origins of the COS, its growth and development, and its impact on social work in London. It examines the organization’s philosophy, methods, and achievements, as well as its challenges and controversies. The book also provides insights into the social and economic conditions of the time, and the role of philanthropy and social reform in addressing social problems. Bosanquet’s work is based on extensive research, including interviews with key figures in the COS and archival materials. The book is considered a landmark in the history of social work and philanthropy, and provides valuable insights into the development of social policy and practice in London and beyond.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
