Details |
The delights of camping out: Dr. Barnardo's boys at Aldershot. Here they are seen doing a band practice with brass instruments and bagpipes. Thomas John Barnardo (1845 - 1905) is a classically Victorian figure - evangelical, entrepreneurial and philanthropic. His crusade to 'rescue children from the streets' was one the best known social interventions in the last half of the nineteenth century.
