The Chimney-Sweeper's Complaint is a book written by William Holloway and published in 1806. The book is a collection of poems that shed light on the harsh realities of the chimney-sweeping industry in England during the 18th and 19th centuries. The poems are written from the perspective of the chimney sweepers themselves, who were often children forced into labor due to poverty and social inequality. The book explores themes of injustice, exploitation, and the dehumanizing effects of poverty on vulnerable populations. Holloway's work is a powerful critique of the social and economic conditions of his time, and a reminder of the ongoing struggle for social justice and equality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
