By Christabel Pankhurst

Book Overview

Plain Facts About A Great Evil is a book written by Christabel Pankhurst that was first published in 1913. The book is a detailed and passionate expos����� of the social and moral evils of the sex trade, which was prevalent in London and other major cities during the early 20th century. Pankhurst, who was a prominent suffragette and women's rights activist, presents a compelling argument for the abolition of prostitution, highlighting the physical and emotional harm it causes to women and girls, as well as the negative impact it has on society as a whole. The book is divided into chapters that cover various aspects of the sex trade, including the exploitation of young girls, the role of brothel keepers and pimps, and the complicity of the police and other authorities in perpetuating the industry. Pankhurst also provides a historical overview of the sex trade, tracing its roots back to ancient times and showing how it has evolved over the centuries. The book is written in a clear and accessible style, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the sex trade and the struggle for women's rights.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
