This book delves into the consequences of overcrowding and poor housing in Britain during the early 20th century. The author argues that these issues contribute to numerous urban diseases, increased mortality, and reduced life expectancy. The book also highlights the challenges in eradicating slums due to the leasehold system and the financial burdens placed on local authorities. The author presents evidence of the negative impact of overcrowding on physical and mental health, emphasizing the urgent need for reform. The book concludes by calling for stricter enforcement of public health acts, government intervention, and the provision of affordable housing to address the housing crisis.

Excerpt from The Housing Problem in the Towns

A bit Of Sanitary Reform is a sacred duty, from which I dare no more turn away than from knocking down a murderer whom I saw killing a woman.
