Book Description
The Rise of the City, first published in 1933, chronicles the fundamental shift from America as a rural agricultural society to America as an urban industrial center. Schlesinger suggested that the cities, not the frontier, have shaped our nation's story. With a new introduction by Andrea Tuttle Kornbluh.
