Xiv, 430 pages, tables, cloth, DJ, very good. Yale studies of the city, 1. From the dust jacket: "Research on the frontiers of urban studies was the subject of a conference on 19th century cities held in November 1968 at Yale University. These papers from the conference attempt to define what is coming to be known as the 'new urban history. ' The cities studied range from small communities - such as Springfield, Massachusetts, and Poughkeepsie, New York - to giants like Philadelphia, Chicago and Boston. While the majority of the contributions deal with American cities, four essays examine cities in Canada, England, France, and Colombia. The studies focus on the dimensions of mobility and stability in the social structure of 19th century cities. Contributors are: Norman Birnbaum, Stuart Blumin, Michael Frisch, Clyde Griffen, Herbert G. Gutman, Michael B. Katz, Peter R. Knights, Lynn H. Lees, Anthony Maingot, Joan W. Scott, Leo F. Schnore, Richard Sennett, and Stephen Thernstrom. " M995A; 430 pages
