Taking the subject of his earlier book, "The Ten Years' War," Mr. Riis has
completely rewritten it and added practically a third more new material,
bringing the whole up to date. The "War" was with the Slum, hence the new
title.

"It is not enough to say of Mr. Riis and his works that he is one man
among a thousand. He is unique. He does his work of benevolence and reform
under conditions that would harden the hearts of many men and certainly
excite disgust; but he comes out of the grime and dust with some cheery
note or some heroic incident, some story of self-sacrifice among the poor,
or some thought which ennobles the struggle."--_New York Mail._

CHILDREN OF THE TENEMENTS

"Deeply human, sympathetic stories of the youngsters of all nationalities
who crowd the parks, the newsboys' homes, and swarm in the big tenements
of the East Side of New York."

"Mr. Riis is a man who does not theorize, but who knows. His book is full
of pathetic pictures, painful in their truth but beautiful in their
meaning. No one who is interested in sociology can afford to miss what he
has to say."--_Current Literature._

"A classic of childhood, one of Jacob Riis's most charming and attractive
books for boys and girls, one that will always live as a popular
gift-book."

"We collected on the quay at Liverpool--English, Russians, Jews, Germans,
Swedes, Finns, all staring at one another curiously and trying to
understand languages we had never heard before. Three hundred yards out in
the harbor stood the red funneled Cunarder which was to bear us to
America." These words describe the beginning of the colorful travels of
which Mr. Graham writes in this book. Mr. Graham has the spirit of the
real adventurer. He prefers people to Pullmans, steerage passage to first
cabin. In his mingling with the poorer classes he comes in contact
intimately with a life which most writers know only by hearsay, and
interesting bits of this life and that which is picturesque and romantic
and unlooked for he transcribes to paper with a freshness and vividness
