Description:
". . . Gavitt's book presents a sustained attempt to rebut the depiction of Florentine children as victims of brutality and the Innocenti as a charnel house where parents knowingly abandoned their unwanted children to certain death. . . . [A] gracefully written an informative book that avoids a naive and sentimental treatment of its subject." --Julius Kirshner, Italica
