Child Labor In City Streets is a book written by Edward Nicholas Clopper and originally published in 1912. The book is a detailed account of the issue of child labor in American cities during the early 20th century. Clopper was a social worker who spent several years working with impoverished children in urban areas, and his book provides a firsthand perspective on the harsh realities faced by these children.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of child labor in the city streets. Clopper discusses the various types of work that children were forced to do, including selling newspapers, shining shoes, and running errands. He also examines the living conditions of these children, many of whom were homeless or lived in overcrowded tenements.Throughout the book, Clopper highlights the physical and emotional toll that child labor took on these young workers. He describes the long hours, dangerous working conditions, and lack of education that left many children trapped in a cycle of poverty and exploitation.Despite the grim subject matter, Child Labor In City Streets is also a call to action. Clopper argues that child labor is a moral and social issue that demands attention and reform. He advocates for better working conditions, increased access to education, and stronger child labor laws.Overall, Child Labor In City Streets is a powerful and important book that sheds light on a dark chapter in American history. Its vivid descriptions and firsthand accounts provide a valuable insight into the lives of impoverished children during the early 20th century, and its message of social justice remains relevant today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
