About This Item
One preacher's crusade against the wickedness and debauchery of city life takes the form of a sort of pictorial rogue's gallery, showing the reader the various forms of lowlifes and their evil scams he or she will encounter in any given metropolis, and offering spiritual guidance. The author was one of the most popular orators in New York in the late 19th century.
