Inspired by a desire to learn about her grandfather's childhood in an English orphanage, the author tells the story of London's Foundling Hospital. Founded in 1739 by retired shipbuilder Thomas Coram, the "home for foundlings" took in babies whose desperate mothers might otherwise have abandoned them. Includes a glossary and timeline.
