Not illustrated. 1877 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER XXV. FAEEWELL NIGHT. On my return from Niagara I gave the promised concert. The immense placards with which the walls were covered announced to all that I was to appear for the last time. I had never before seen my name under this aspect; the letters were as tall as I am and four times as broad. The American public showed a due appreciation of these splendid bills. Gilmore's Garden was filled with the elite of New York society. The moment I appeared I was hailed with cheers, hurrahs, and enthusiastic applause. And they say Americans are a cold-blooded people! I will spare you the particulars of that night, for aside of the fact that I have sworn to speak as little as possible of myself, I must confess that I was so overcome by this unexpected manifestation that I did not very well comprehend what was going on around me. After the concert, I found with difficulty a few words to repeat, once more, my thanks to my musicians for the valuable assistance they had given me during my visit, expressing the wish, of the sincerity of which they could have no doubt, that the success they so well deserved might continue long after my departure. They thanked me for the performance I had given for the benefit of their association, and made me promise to return to America in the course of two or three years. I promised, as people promise at such times; but, should circumstances permit, I assure you that it would be very pleasant to me to return to Yankee-land and to improve my acquaintance with this marvellous country and with this great people, who showed me a degree of sympathy which will ever remain dear to my memory. CHAPTER XXVI. HOMEWARD-BOUND. On the 8th July I sailed on board the Ganadas which, to my great satisfaction, happened to be...

Originally published in 1984. In 1888 the British observer James Bryce declared "the government of cities" to be "the one conspicuous failure of the United States." During the following two decades, urban reformers would repeat Bryce's words with ritualistic regularity; nearly a century later, his comment continues to set the tone for most assessments of nineteenth-century city government. Yet by the end of the century, as Jon Teaford argues in this important reappraisal, American cities boasted the most abundant water supplies, brightest street lights, grandest parks, largest public libraries, and most efficient systems of transportation in the world. Far from being a "conspicuous failure," municipal governments of the late nineteenth century had successfully met challenges of an unprecedented magnitude and complexity. The Unheralded Triumph draws together the histories of the most important cities of the Gilded Age—especially New York, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, St. Louis, and Baltimore—to chart the expansion of services and the improvement of urban environments between 1870 and 1900. It examines the ways in which cities were transformed, in a period of rapid population growth and increased social unrest, into places suitable for living. Teaford demonstrates how, during the last decades of the nineteenth century, municipal governments adapted to societal change with the aid of generally compliant state legislatures. These were the years that saw the professionalization of city government and the political accommodation of the diverse ethnic, economic, and social elements that compose America's heterogeneous urban society. Teaford acknowledges that the expansion of urban services dangerously strained city budgets and that graft, embezzlement, overcharging, and payroll-padding presented serious problems throughout the period. The dissatisfaction with city governments arose, however, not so much from any failure to achieve concrete results as from the conflicts between those hostile groups accommodated within the newly created system: "For persons of principle and gentlemen who prized honor, it seemed a failure yet American municipal government left as a legacy such achievements as Central Park, the new Croton Aqueduct, and the Brooklyn Bridge, monuments of public enterprise that offered new pleasures and conveniences for millions of urban citizens."
