Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Working Classes in France Nothing sooner reached the intellect as well as the heart of the scholarly woman whose review appears in this little volume than the state of the poor. To examine the conditions of laborers, to study the eco nomic causes and results operating for or against their well-being, was one of the chief interests of her life. Especially was this true of the great period of history known as the Middle Ages. Her extensive investigation in this field was first shown by her doctorate thesis, Aelleiding, a study of those early Norse laws by which children of illegitimate birth could be given social position. A few years later followed Slavery in Germanic Society during the Middle Ages; and still later the review here reprinted of Levasseur's Histoire des classes ouvrieres cl de l'induslrie en France. Though prevented by circumstances from producing a monumental work of her own. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
