These comments on Hendrik Hartog's Someday All This Will Be Yours: A History of Inheritance and Old Age ( 2012 ) examine the delivery of elder care in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries and the resonance with care practices today. The book's stories of how older people arranged for their care transcend time and place, showing the age‐old difficulties of providing care for the elderly. |
