Problems of Reconstruction : Lectures and Addresses, Delivered at the Summer Meeting at the Hampstead Garden Suburb, August, 1917 (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Problems of Reconstruction: Lectures and Addresses, Delivered at the Summer Meeting at the Hampstead Garden Suburb, August, 1917

The Social Science Congresses of former days could boast of a similar aim, and, as we know, many of the finer minds and keener spirits of those days played their parts in them. But I am not sure that they ever attempted to cover so much ground as that on which we are entering to-day, and of two things I am quite certain: first, that they never discussed great issues at a time so momentous, and next, that, meeting as they did in great centres of population, their gatherings were never held in surroundings so delightful and so socially stimulating as those of the Garden Suburb.
