Specifikacia Portrait of a City: Lincoln, Nebraska, at the Turn of the Twentieth Century Pauley Bruce F.
Once just a scattering of houses on the open prairie, by the late nineteenth century the city of Lincoln, Nebraska, had evolved into a modern metropolis. The changes ushered in by the Industrial Revolution and an increase in machine labor affected all aspects of daily life--housework, transportation, education, entertainment, fashion, and medicine--changing lives drastically in little more than a single generation. Lincolnites moved beyond simply growing a new city; many also wanted to help create a more enlightened society. By 1910 the city had become a booming political, educational, and cultural center on the Great Plains, with three denominational colleges and a state university with a national reputation for academic excellence.In Portrait of a City Bruce F.
