""European Cities At Work"" is a book written by Frederic Clemson Howe and published in 1913. The book provides a comprehensive account of the social and economic conditions of several major European cities at the time, including London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, and Rome. Howe, who was an American social reformer and politician, travelled extensively throughout Europe to gather information for his book.The book is divided into several chapters, each focusing on a different aspect of urban life, such as housing, labor, education, and social welfare. Howe provides detailed statistics and analysis of the conditions in each city, as well as interviews with local officials and experts. He also includes photographs and illustrations to help readers visualize the cities and their inhabitants.One of the main themes of the book is the impact of industrialization on urban life.
