"Some 350 photos inform, fascinate and touch the heart." --The Philadelphia Daily News "This volume attempts to translate social history, the story of ordinary citizens, into a visual and readable form, and to show the impact of outside events on the city's history... [I]t is simply the best book of its kind that we've seen." --History of Photography "I loved both the pictures and the stories... They make a fine record of the period and reminded me of my whole life in Philadelphia." --E. Digby Baltzell "Miller, Vogel, and Davis have succeeded once more in making a thoughtful illustrated history of the city." --Sam Bass Warner
