Streetcar Suburbs: The Process of Growth in Boston, 1870–1900, Second Edition
Warner, Sam Bass, Jr.
In the last third of the 19th century Boston grew from a crowded merchant town, in which nearly everybody walked to work, to a modern divided metropolis. The street railway created this division of the metropolis into an inner city of commerce and slums and an outer city of commuter suburbs. This book tells who built the new city, and why, and how.
