Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Housing of the Working Classes and of the Poor The moral and religious reformer tells us of the degrading effects of overcrowding, the corrupting, soul destroying influences of huddling together in one room, whole families, with young people of all ages, numbering from twelve to seventeen at a time, and this, too, in the immediate neighbourhood of the best houses in the West End of London. They speak of torture chambers haunted by rats, tenements in which are bred intemperance and vice, exhibiting the reverse of the aphoristic saying of Dr. Chalmers, that if we were morally right we should be physically happy.
