Sobre IBD

Jane Addams (1860 - 1935) was a woman dedicated to helping those less fortunate. Her work at the famed Hull House in Chicago was a frontrunner in social reform. The Spirit Of Youth And The City Streets contains material that had previously appeared in publications as separate articles. Here Addams has complied the material into a small book with the hope that people in large cities will use the knowledge to help keep the children safe and provide them with opportunities for recreation.
