How - and why - did one of the world's greatest cities come to be teetering on the edge of bankruptcy? Ken Auletta, writer for THE NEW YORKER and columnist for THE DAILY NEWS, shows how the decline of New York City was partly inevitable --- the result of shifting migration patterns and rapidl technological innovations --- and partly caused by anarchic political and economic factions, each angling for its own advantage. His lucid examination also pinpoints the core of New York City's problems --- the failure of liberal democratic government --- and explores what this will mean for the future of all American cities. "A tremendously impressive combination of reporting and analysis that illuminates not only New York's situation, but also the most basic trends in the politics and economy of the nation as a whole" - James Fallows, Washington Editor, THE ATLANTIC MONTHLY "Absolute must reading for anyone concerned with New York and the urban future." - George Sternlieb, Director, Centor for Urban Policy Researcch, Rutgers University

The story of London City Mission is of men walking the poorest streets of London, getting their hands dirty as they reached out to people in need with the message of the Gospel and their unique brand of practical help. Rather than writing a consecutive history of London City Mission, the authors selected areas of the work and told the story of each. The story takes a different turn as it enters the 20th C. From being the capital city of an empire, London became a city at war with itself and then with others. LCM missionaries were right in among the revolutionaries. What comes out in the story of LCM is that missionaries were men (until the late 1980s) whose hearts were full of compassion for the lost and the needy. The Mission is still looking forward to the challenge of the 21st Century LCM may be an old Mission, but it is not resting on its laurels; rather it is grappling, as it always has, with today's London, and planning for the needs of the London of tomorrow.

An idiot, alcoholic rapist with a sadistic sex drive, a voluptuous abused wife, a twisted hellfire preacher, a mute prostitute and her dwarf sister are just some of the lurid and grotesque characters in STREETS PAVED WITH GOLD, a violent blast of pulp southern gothic. First published in 1958, STREETS PAVED WITH GOLD was filmed under the title MUDHONEY by Russ Meyer in 1965, resulting in an early classic of the “roughie” genre.

A Street Paved of Gold: An Italian Epic By: Robert R. Dattilo About the Book At the turn of the twentieth century, Vincenzo Martinelli migrated from the Provence of Calabria with his family in pursuit of the American dream. Upon entering the country, a chance meeting changes the trajectory of his life, and that of his family’s for generations to come. Filled with back-room deals, Prohibition-era mobsters, and everyday life in the growing town of Elizabeth, New Jersey, A Street Paved of Gold is an epic tale of one family’s rise to success through hard work, perseverance, and dedication to principles, and the traps and trials many immigrant families faced on their way to find their own street paved of gold.

Whether Jewish, Irish, German, Italian or other ethnic groups that were part of the mass migration to our shores out of Europe from the latter part of the 1800s to the early part of the 1900s, the story is familiar. The new arrivals overcame unbelievable hardships in their new land so that their offspring would have a better life than they had had in the old country. And well they did. The decendents of these poor, weary immigrants have become leaders in every field be it politics, science, law, medicine, the military, arts and entertainment, etc. What a stroke of good fortune for both the progeny (of which I am one) and America.
