This details the major turning points in the story of the North Eastern (later Queen's Hospital) for Children between its foundation in 1867, and 1924 (twenty years after The Whitwar magazine was created to raise funds). #socialhistory #London #medicalhistory #hospitals #childrenshospital

New post: a short biography of Susan St Maur, Duchess of Somerset—a fascinating figure in early 20th-century philanthropy, including her support for children’s hospitals.

A woman in Edwardian costume has collapsed drunkenly on the pavement, facing a jeering skull wearing a top hat.
'D'Absinthe' by Kees van Dongen, 1902. A cruel but no doubt accurate depiction of the effect the narcotic wormwood-derived liquor had on the working population of continental Europe. I suppose the London equivalent would have been gin.

Senate published a number of paperbacks in the mid 90s, they were cheap reprints of books originally printed in the early 1900s with a bias towards history. They were fascinating and I've just re-read this one, first published in 1910
