Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. First Edition. With a chapter by Eugenia Winston Weller. Photographs by Weller, Lewis Hine, and Donald Glascoff. Dedication copy inscribed on the front endpaper by Weller to his mother. Very Good. Green cloth, bumped at the corners, rubbed and with some fraying at the edges, with some soiling to the white ink lettering and designs. Firmly bound with a slight forward lean, clean internally. Weller's muckraking work exposing the housing conditions of many within the nation's capitol. In his introductory letter, President Theodore Roosevelt praises Weller's mission, stating, "I believe that your study will be helpful both in pointing out the evils which block the way and in suggesting remedial measures. We of this country are just beginning to appreciate the social problems which have developed while our cities have been growing so marvelously and while our people have been over-absorbed in their industrial and commercial tasks. We are now becoming conscious of some of the unevenness which has naturally resulted from the rapidity of material growth, the over-absorption in material things ; we are beginning to think of the neighbors and neighborhoods which have been neglected. In a democracy like ours, it is an ill thing for all of us, if any of us suffer from unwholesome surroundings or from lack of opportunity for good home life, good citizenship and useful industry." If Weller's inscription is to be believed, this is one of the first three copies of the book bound, the other two reserve for President Roosevelt and Weller's wife. Signed.
