Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a glimpse into Plainfield, New Jersey at the beginning of the 20th Century through its transcription of the local city council's annual report from 1910. The report is dominated by an account of the work done by various city departments, including the police, health board, fire brigade, library, and the tree commission.

Despite its focus on Plainfield, the report's insights into the nuts and bolts of local government during the early 20th century will fascinate anyone interested in American history, local government, or urban planning.
