Description
Memoirs of Mrs. Elizabeth Fry is a book written by Thomas Timpson in 1847 that chronicles the life and work of Elizabeth Fry. Fry was a social reformer and philanthropist who is best known for her efforts to improve the conditions of female prisoners and British seamen during the 19th century. The book provides a detailed account of Fry's childhood, marriage, and her work in prison reform, including her efforts to establish schools and provide religious education to female prisoners. It also covers her work with the British Society for the Improvement of Prison Discipline, her advocacy for the abolition of the death penalty, and her efforts to improve the conditions of British seamen. The memoirs offer insights into the life and work of one of the most important social reformers of the 19th century, and provide a valuable historical perspective on the issues of prison reform and social justice.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
