Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book confronts the challenges faced by Chicago in an era of industrialization and rapid population growth. Published in 1900, it includes essays from prominent Chicagoans arguing that the city's most pressing need is developing moral young men who will lead Chicago into the next century. The authors contend that men of character and social responsibility are necessary if the city is to continue its progress and maintain its high standard of living. The book explores the variety of ways to meet this need, discussing the roles of the church, schools, businesses, and the Young Men's Christian Association. Along with other established and new initiatives to instill and nurture strong moral character in young men, the YMCA is viewed as a major agent of change and is a central focus of the book. This insightful and informative book offers a unique snapshot of the social and moral values of Chicago at the turn of the 20th century.
