Description

In the second half of the nineteenth century, American cities began to go dark. As hulking new buildings overspread blocks and glass and smog screened out the health-giving rays of the sun, and doctors began to note a resurgence of diseases of darkness like rickets and tuberculosis. This book tracks the American obsession with sunlight.
