Plain Folk: The Life Stories of Undistinguished Americans Paperback - 1982
by David M. Katzman (Editor); William M. Tuttle (Editor)
First line
"The Biography of a Bootblack" is an odyssey of the new immigration.
From the rear cover
Plain Folk depicts both the ordinary occupations and ethnic and racial diversity of America at the turn of the century. But, unlike the reportorial studies by such people as Jacob Riis or the settlement house reports of Jane Addams, Plain Folk presents the actual voices of the working class, untouched by the worldview of reformers, unchanged by the eyes of academics.

Description:
Urbana IL: University of Illinois Press, 1982. 1st. Softcover. Very Good/None. Softcover, 198 pages. This text depicts both the ordinary occupation and ethnic and racial diversity in America at the turn of the century. Some speak of farms, others speak of factory sweatshops. Katzman and Tuttle have drawn upon 75 brief autobiographies or "lifelets" of working-class Americans published between 1902 and 1906 in The Independent magazine. Among the seventeen life stories included here are those of a Lithuanian stockyards worker in Chicago, a Polish sweatshop girl and a Chinese merchant in New York City, a black peon in rural Georgia, and a Swedish farmer in Minnesota. Together they provide an unmediated and seldom-seen view of American life during this period. Clean copy. Record # 384928
