Seller's Description:
Very good in very good dust jacket. Inscribed by author to front flyleaf: 'For Sheldon; with warm regards; Gunther' Beautiful jacket design by Egon Lauterberg. Book is in lovely shape, with tight spine and unmarked pages. Jacket has some shelf-wear. Urban history innovator Richard C. Wade, in his foreword to this study of two boomtowns, writes, 'Both owed their early growth to the discovery of gold; both fed off the kinetic transiency of prospectors and speculators; both witnessed spectacular initial growth later fortified by the transportation revolution. ' Wade's 1959 book, The Urban Frontier, confronted Frederick Jackson Turner's Frontier Thesis, positing that western expansion was precipitated by cities like Pittsburgh, Louisville, and Cincinnati rather than by agrarian pioneers, and that these urban centers in turn became seats of political power that rivaled those on the Eastern Seaboard. Barth takes this assertion and heads farther west with it here, demonstrating that the breakneck origin stories of these western metropolises set up a pattern of ongoing and chaotic reinvention that continues today. 310 pp.
