The Robbery Of The Poor (1884)

By William H. P. Campbell

Book Overview

The Robbery of the Poor is a book written by William H. P. Campbell, first published in 1884. The book is a critique of the economic and social conditions in the United States during the late 19th century, particularly the exploitation of the poor by the wealthy elite. The author argues that the rich are able to accumulate wealth through the exploitation of the poor, and that this leads to a widening gap between the rich and the poor. Campbell also discusses the role of the government in perpetuating this inequality, and calls for reforms that would address the economic and social injustices faced by the poor. The book is a passionate plea for social justice and economic equality, and remains relevant today as a critique of the ongoing issues of poverty and inequality in the United States.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
