Seller's Description:
4to. [104 pp.]. Hard Covers. Dust Jacket. Very Good+. Pages fine. B&W plates throughout. Scarce hard cover copy with DJ. Synopsis: The labyrinthine inhabited alleys of Southwest Washington, D.C., were considered shameful for their proximity to the Capitol dome. Interspersed with the reminiscences of more than 20 people who grew up in and near the alleys, Frankel's photographs evoke a time when even the worst living conditions were alleviated by the "extended families" each neighborhood formed.
