A Study of the Population of Manhattanville

Howard Brown Woolston

A pioneering sociological study of a working-class neighborhood in 19th-century Manhattan, conducted by the American economist Howard Brown Woolston. The book combines demographic analysis, survey data, and personal observations to paint a vivid picture of the social, economic, and cultural life of the residents of Manhattanville, who were mostly Irish immigrants and their descendants. Woolston's research sheds light on issues of poverty, crime, housing, education, and religion, and offers a valuable snapshot of daily life in one of the most dynamic and diverse cities in the world.
