Recensioner i media

“This book is a welcome addition to the history of childhood, nationalism, and charitable organizations. The text is separated into chapters tackling concise eras and offering a fresh comparison with other similar European movements. … this book is an important contribution to the history of childhood and youth in understanding and contextualizing both local and regional differences, but also showing how the rise in influence of political movements can affect the provision of aid to children in need.” (Aisling Shalvey, The Journal of the History of Childhood and Youth, Vol. 16 (3), 2023)
