Summary
Based on a three-year study conducted in Brooklyn's Greenpoint/Williamsburg section, this book is an in-depth, detailed description of life in a multi-ethnic working class neighborhood during New York City's fiscal crisis of 1975-1978. Well-written, intelligent, and full of sensitively drawnportraits, it demonstrates the impact of political and economic changes on everyday lives.
