This groundbreaking work of social criticism was first published in 1747 by James Edward Oglethorpe, a prominent British philanthropist and founder of the Georgia colony in America.

Oglethorpe's critique is incisive and provocative, and his solutions are both practical and visionary. The book is an essential read for anyone interested in the history of social reform and the struggle for a more just and equitable society.This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important, and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.This work is in the "public domain in the United States of America, and possibly other nations.
