Roots of Violence in Black Philadelphia, 1860–1900
Roger Lane
Lane offers a historical explanation for rising levels of black urban crime and family instability during a paradoxical era. Modern crime rates and patterns are shown to be products of a historical culture traceable from its formative years. The author charts Philadelphia’s story but also makes suggestions about national and international patterns.
