Salvation City: Halfway House Stories John C Kilburn

"An important contribution to the sociological and social service literature. It is also a well-documented work that, with little jargon, neatly blends theoretical and applied sociology with historical description. Salvation City provides the reader with a penetrating analysis of the problematic relationship between local communities and people in need of vital services." - Jerome Krase, Emeritus and Murray Koppelman Professor, Brooklyn College, The City University of New York
