Letters Home [EPUB ebook] 

A group of people from Boston and inland towns of Iowa and New York spent the three months between December and March, 1901 — 1902, in New York City for different reasons. Their ‘letters home’ to various relations and friends tell an ingenious story. The fascination of the great city tells upon them all, and excellent descriptions of the turn-of-the-century New York appear in all the letters.
