Why read it?
1 author picked Voices from the Asylum as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
I am recommending this book by Mark Davis because it was such an intimate look at the West Riding Pauper Asylum, which I reference in my own book.

I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in this time period. I just wish the book was longer!
