Publisher's Synopsis
The Unwelcome Child: Or The Crime Of An Undesigned And Undesired Maternity is a book written by Henry Clarke Wright in 1860. The book explores the social and moral issues surrounding unwanted pregnancies and the treatment of illegitimate children in 19th century America. Wright argues that the stigma and shame associated with illegitimate children is unjust and that society should extend more compassion and support to unwed mothers and their offspring. The book provides a historical perspective on the cultural attitudes towards illegitimacy and offers a critique of the prevailing views of the time. It is a thought-provoking and insightful work that sheds light on an important social issue that still resonates today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
