First Edition
Paperback. First Edition Thus (1962); First Printing, so stated. Very Good- in Wraps: shows indications of careful use: a scuffed area (perhaps insect damage) to the lower backstrip (does not affect the titles thereon); slight spine lean; light wear to the extremities; considerable rubbing to the wrapper covers; faint soiling to the white background field of the rear panel; the binding is secure (the binding is sewn rather than simply glued); the text pages have tanned somewhat, due to aging, but remain clean. Former owner's name neatly printed at the upper corner of the front endpaper. Free of any underlining, hi-lighting, marginalia or marks in the text. A solid used copy, structurally sound and tightly bound, showing moderate wear and minor cosmetic flaws. Clearly this is a flawed copy, but if one can overlook the pen work, remains structurally sound and tightly bound: a clean, sturdy, presentable reading copy. NOT a Remainder, Book-Club, or Ex-Library. 8vo. (8 x 5.5 x 0.8 inches). x, 275 pages. Language: English. Weight: 11.4 ounces. Trade Paperback. First Edition Thus (1962); First Printing, so stated.

For in many ways it seems, in retrospect, that the qualities of one and the opportunities of the other were ideally suited to each other. This book is a collection of literature and documents ranging from the autobiography of the sculptor Jacob Epstein and the novels of Abraham Cahan, on the one hand, to the reporting of William Dean Howells, of Hutchins Hapgood, and the fictional reconstruction of a vanished world by Henry Roth, on the other. The world is that of the old shtetl transplanted to a new, growing country, where "the ghetto" (in the years 1881~1924) was an unstable mixture of nostalgic elements and the pressures of American economic and social reality. The productivity, both intellectual and material, of this little section of New York during those forty~odd years around the turn of the twentieth century has become a legend among many Jews in this country and deserves to become better known to many more of other ethnic origins. The lower East Side was paradoxically a wilderness to be traversed and a portion of that "promised land" which had been glimpsed with so much hope from afar. To wonderfully talented and observant children like Jacob Epstein, the streets there in the 1880's were as filled with color and excitement as those of the Arabian Nights. To serious philosophic young men like Morris Raphael Cohen, they were as challenging as the marketplace of Athens had once been to Socrates to achieve intellectual enlightenment and the improvement of the social order. The conditions of abominable crowding and poverty described in the sociological tracts of Jacob Riis, Lillian Wald, and others are better known perhaps to the average reader than the accounts of such relaxations and entertainments as the dancing schools, the Yiddish theaters, the cafes, the lectures the literary ferment and activities, described in the pages of Abraham Cahan and Hutchins Hapgood, but they are all, dark and bright, recognizably parts of the same picture. It was a world in which the rule was deprivation of everything except hope, and unlike so many other human and Jewish stories and experiences in our time, the hope was destined happily, in large measure, to be realized. The "how" and the "why" of this realization of the dreams of struggling people who never gave up "believing and hoping and trusting" (if we may use Whitman's words) confront us today, in anothe age, with some still~relevant questions, to which this volume hopefully aims to suggest some stimulating and thoughtful answers.
