The Dramatic Biography Of Prison Reformer Elizabeth Fry

BY JEAN HATTON

Brief Description:
In 1816, 36-year-old Elizabeth (Betsy) Fry walked alone into the horrific Newgate Goal as a minister of the Society of Friends. The transformation she brought to the female inmates there propelled her onto the stage of world history. This book from a mainstream Christian publisher is her biography and shows how she accomplished this despite having 11 children of her own and suffering badly from depression.
