A transcription of Sir George Nicholls' 1856 work A History of the Scotch Poor Law in Connexion with the Condition of the People is now available to read at the Electric Scotland website, located at http://www.electricscotland.com/history/law/. The book gives a fascinating insight into the system of poor relief as used in Scotland.
