''The Charity Organization Society of the City of New York, 1882-1907: History, Account of Present Activities'' is a historical account written by Lilian Brandt in 1907. The book chronicles the establishment and growth of the Charity Organization Society (COS) in New York City from its inception in 1882 to the year of publication. The COS was a volunteer-based organization that aimed to provide relief to the poor and needy in the city by promoting self-sufficiency and personal responsibility. The book provides a detailed account of the organization’s founding, its early struggles and successes, and its evolution over the years. It also includes a comprehensive overview of the COS’s current activities at the time of publication, including its various programs and initiatives. Through its pages, readers can gain insight into the social and economic conditions of New York City during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, as well as the efforts of the COS to address the needs of the city’s most vulnerable populations. The book is a valuable resource for those interested in the history of social welfare in the United States and the development of charitable organizations in urban areas.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
