Shutting Out the Sky: Life in the Tenements of New York, 1880-1924 (Scholastic Focus)

This book was in mint condition!! Brand new, like it had never been opened.

This product arrived on time and as expected.I really enjoyed it and found the book to be a rather quick read but very entertaining and informative, using gritty, real-world recollections from men and women who experienced these things first hand.Probably not a top choice for those with a lot of knowledge already regarding this time period, but as an introduction I can definitely recommend.

I needed to be reminded.As we all do!We are blessed in so many ways. Always remember, where we came from.Pray everyday for our children's future.

Ordered the book for a reading assignment for my 10 year old. She loves it!

Wonderful book full of photo's and stories... I am going to read parts of it to my 9 year old grandchild who lives in Brooklyn. As a collector of NYC historical stories and photo's, I found this to be well worth the price.

Loved reading about New York in the old days as mom and dad lived there and I am writing a book about them.

excellent

Awesome thanks!
