Lively biography which draws on hitherto unpublished sources as the author traces the subject's role in the founding of the Whitechapel Gallery, Toynbee Hall, and the Children's Country Holiday Fund, in helping girls and single mothers and in leading the movement to abolish the inhuman institutional care of pauper children and replace it with fostering. Published in association with the Hampstead Garden Suburb Archive Trust.
