Between 1845 and 1855, 2 million Irish men and women fled their famine-ravaged homeland, many to settle in large British and American cities that were already wrestling with a complex array of urban problems. In this innovative work of comparative urban history, Matthew Gallman looks at how two cities, Philadelphia and Liverpool, met the challenges raised by the influx of immigrants. Gallman examines how citizens and policymakers in Philadelphia and Liverpool dealt with such issues as poverty, disease, poor sanitation, crime, sectarian conflict, and juvenile delinquency. By considering how two cities of comparable population and dimensions responded to similar challenges, he sheds new light on familiar questions about distinctive national characteristics--without resorting to claims of "American exceptionalism." In this critical era of urban development, English and American cities often evolved in analogous ways, Gallman notes. But certain crucial differences--in location, material conditions, governmental structures, and voluntaristic traditions, for example--inspired varying approaches to urban problem solving on either side of the Atlantic.

Excerpt: ... APPENDIX. NOTES ON TWO RECENT INQUIRIES INTO THE PHYSICAL AND MENTAL CONDITION OF CHILDREN IN CHARITABLE INSTITUTIONS AND PUBLIC SCHOOLS* FRANCES R. MORSE, Of the Board of Directors of the Boston Children's Aid Society, Boston, Mass. Dr. Amos G. Warner, Superintendent of Charities for the District of Columbia, in his report of June, 1892, gives an account of a cardcensus made by him, covering the 611 children in Washington institutions in 1892. Dr. Warner says (p. 28): "Of the 611 children, 32 were afflicted with some nervous trouble, epilepsy, paralysis, or some grade of feeble-mindedness, ranging all the way from idiocy up to those described simply as ' very dull.' None are included in this number (32) except those who had some marked mental defect or nervous disease. "Beside these, 92 of the children were markedly defective or diseased. Not many cripples were found, but many afflicted with severe forms of scrofula and other varieties of practically incurable blood-poisoning. "Thus it will be seen" that 1 out of 5 of " the children in our institutions is unwell mentally or physically. This, of course, does not include those who are suffering from such ailments common to institution life, as mild skin disease, sore eyes, etc. It should be said that the institutions are, for the most part, in nowise responsible for the sickly condition of the children, but that, on the other hand, the tendency of a family to sickness is often responsible for the dependency of a child. * Through accident this paper did not reach the secretary in time to be read at the Congress.--Editors. "The largest proportion of feeble-minded or nervously diseased cases is apt to appear in institutions for wayward girls." Dr. Warner further says: "An inquiry was made regarding the parentage of ...

With rare maps, prints, and photographs, this unique volume explores the dramatic history of the Americas through the birth and development of the hemisphere's great cities. Written by award-winning author David F. Marley, Historic Cities of the Americas covers the hard-to-find information of these cities' earliest years, including the unique aspects of each region's economy and demography, such as the growth of local mining, trade, or industry. The chronological layout, aided by the numerous maps and photographs, reveals the exceptional changes, relocations, destruction, and transformations these cities endured to become the metropolises they are today. Historic Cities of the Americas provides over 70 extensively detailed entries covering the foundation and evolution of the most significant urban areas in the western hemisphere. Critically researched, this work offers a rare look into the times prior to Christopher Columbus' arrival in 1492 and explores the common difficulties overcome by these European-conquered or -founded cities as they flourished into some of the most influential locations in the world.
