Audiobook
This is a collection of vignettes about poverty in New York City in the early 1900s. Jacob Riis was a police reporter and a sociologist. He made human the faces of extreme poverty and did not limit his often-wrenching prose to children. He included old people and animals, and described diverse cultures. These stories evoke both laughter and tears.
