Excerpt from Tenement-House InspectorThe first edition of this book was published in the spring of 1904 and was exhausted in less than one year from date of publica tion.In spite of the imperfections of the first edition, due to the haste with which it was composed, the book was acknowledged to have been a great help to the many thousands of candidates for the positions in the Tenement House Department, and the demand for a second edition was great, but could not be satisfied till now for lack of time.The present edition of the book is entirely rewritten, contains many new features, and is better adapted to the need of students of tenement house conditions and inspection.My experience of ten years in coaching students for sanitary positions has shown me that most students appreciate the study of the subject in the form of questions and answers, and I have therefore preceded the exposition of the subject matter by questions which are answered in the text. I have also given references to text books and other reading matter for such students as desire a more thorough further study on the subject.A special feature of this edition is made of a complete set of answers to all questions given in former examinations, a feature which will be, I think, greatly appreciated by students.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
