Explores the process by which boardinghouse life was translated into a lively urban vernacular. This work is at once an essential introduction to a 'lost' world of boarding, even as it comprises an early, engaging, and sophisticated analysis of America's 'urban turn' during the decades leading up to the Civil War.
