"How the Other Half Lives - Special Illustrated Edition Including the Author's Photographs [Illustrated]" Overview

How the Other Half Lives (1890) was a pioneering work of photojournalism by Jacob Riis, documenting the squalid living conditions in New York City slums in the 1880s. It served as a basis for future muckraking journalism by exposing the slums to New York City’s upper and middle class.
How The Other Half Lives quickly became a landmark in the annals of social reform. Riis documented the filth, disease, exploitation, and overcrowding that characterized the experience of more than one million immigrants. He helped push tenement reform to the front of New York's political agenda, and prompted then-Police Commissioner Theodore Roosevelt to close down the police-run poor houses. Roosevelt later called Riis "the most useful citizen of New York".
Riis's idea inspired Jack London to write a similar exposé on London's East End, called People of the Abyss.

Updated Amazon Kindle Edition

FROM THE FORWARD

"In today’s complicated world, it is sometimes hard to know what constitutes being an American. With freedom from attack from all sides and our political discourse resembling at times nothing more dignified than the tawdriest of daytime soap operas, it is sometime too easy to forget what the ideals of liberty as enshrined in our Constitution truly means.

This book was created to help us relearn all that is important about America and our Constitution, by reading the very words of those individuals who have collectively made our country great. Inside this volume you will find classic words by the original authors of the Federalist Papers, Alexander Hamilton, John Jay and James Madison.

You will also find patriotic writings by George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Patrick Henry and Abraham Lincoln, as well as more modern contributions by Ronald Reagan, and George Bush.

This volume also contains all the inaugural addresses of every single American president, as well as the complete Common Sense by Thomas Paine.

We hope that this small volume will help us remember and cherish our country and our Constitution for today and forever, so help us God."
