Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents original research on the history of Baltimore from 1834, with an emphasis on the city's urban development during this time. The author uses the city council records from the year to detail the political, social, and economic events that gave shape to the new institutions and infrastructure of 19th century Baltimore. The book describes how Baltimore transitioned from a small port town into a growing metropolis with financial and transportation systems that connected it to the country's largest cities. A key theme in this book is the changing role of the city's government in response to the city's growth, and the increasing involvement of city government in the daily life of the city's residents. Through these topics, this book offers unique insights into the development of many of the urban systems and policies that are still in use today.
