Résumé

Jacob A. Riis' 'The Children of the Poor' is a powerful expose on the living conditions and struggles faced by impoverished children in the late 19th century New York City.

Riis' firsthand experiences as a police reporter in the slums of New York City provided him with the intimate knowledge and compassion needed to write such a groundbreaking book. 'The Children of the Poor' is a must-read for anyone interested in social history, journalism, or the fight for social justice.
This book is a timeless classic that continues to shed light on the plight of the poor and marginalized in society.
