Description: London: Swan Sonnenschein & Co. Limd, 1897. First Edition. Hardcover. "This volume contains the first attempt to give a connected view of the whole of this subject. Various portions have been full treated by previous writers; but they have hardly attempted to gather up the scattered threads, and to show the influence which aliens have exercised in all districts of the country and on every side of English life." - Preface. "If all the volumes of the Social England Series contain as much valuable and interesting matter as [this book], the projectors of the series may congratulate themselves. It is clear, terse and full of information." - The Economic Journal, Vol 8, Issue 30, 1 June 1898.
