Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a forthright examination of the moral decline and the persistent sins committed by the elite of British society in the 19th century. The author minces no words in pointing out the stark contrast between the preaching of Christian principles on the one hand, and the lives a…nd habits of the lords, ladies, and politicians on the other. The author's concern is not with private lives, but the very public and damaging consequences of upper-class misbehavior. At one point, the author declares that the most deadly bane of society is the profanation of the Sabbath, due to the direct and pernicious influence this has upon the lower classes. Gambling, horse-racing, seduction, and prostitution are also brought to the forefront as activities where aristocratic practices are seen to wreak havoc on individuals and communities. Throughout this book, the author maintains a somber but emphatic tone of moral outrage, bringing a level of historical clarity to the role of privilege in the creation of social problems.
