Book Description
Excerpt from Quaint Corners in Philadelphia: With One Hundred and Seventy-Four Illustrations Although this book was first issued in 1883, it contains so much in it that is neither transitory nor ephemeral that it was thought wise to send it to the press again, since it has been out of print for some years and a continuing demand seemed to warrant such a move. It is natural that such a volume should in parts bear the signs of age, and of containing statements no longer true, for Philadelphia, along with the rest of the country, has made immense strides during the last forty years. Among other things it has doubled its population and very nearly doubled the number of its buildings. But it has been believed best to allow the different chapters to remain as they were originally written, but to supplement them with a few words in this Preface. One of the original chapters has been displaced by another that outlines the development in the neighborhood of City Hall Square, a locality that had only begun to be a center of interest in 1883. Originally written for one of the best weekly magazines ever issued in the United States, Our Continent, the various chapters were written by writers who not only knew their Philadelphia, but had a deep sympathy with their subject. They appeared in the pages of that publication during 1882 and 1883. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Description
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
