About this listen

The Bethlem hospital for the mentally insane has existed since the year 1244.

Originally an alms house for Holy Land Crusaders, it became a dumping ground for the incurably insane. The bestial care became public entertainment in the Victorian era, conditions so horrendous that it earned the nickname of ‘Bedlam’.

Poor narration and sound quality. I do not recommend people buy. Disappointed with it. I felt very let down. Was hoping for more.
