University Of Chicago Press, ( 1995 ). First printing. Paperback. Fine. 8vo, 396 pages, pictorial wrappers
Focusses on the day-to-day challenges of life in the city as it rebuilt after its massive destruction. "As they rebuilt ...

Their debates ... exposed the arrays of values and interests that different class, ethnic and religious groups brought to these public discussions." Issued in the Historical Studies of Urban America series.

Sobre Thomas J. Joyce And Company
Joyce And Company has been in business as a professional rare bookseller and appraiser since 1975. Owner Thomas Joyce was the regular book appraiser on Home & Garden TV\'s \"The Appraisal Fair\\\" program, on international broadcasts. Thomas Joyce was the co-discoverer of George Washington's personal copy of William Leybourn's 1679 edition of THE COMPLEAT SURVEYOR, from which young Washington learned some of his surveying skills at age 16. The book had vanished for nearly a century until its re-discovery in 2017. It is now back at Mt. Vernon.
