Between 1915 and 1935 the University of Chicago produced a sociological research that resonated with the lives of urban Americans. These studies focused on delinquents, prostitutes, gangsters, and homeless men. This work offers a survey of some of these monographs such as: "The Unadjusted Girl", "The Jack Roller", and "The Taxi Dance Hall".

Between 1915 and 1935 the University of Chicago was the center for the production of innovative sociological research that unearthed the marginalized existence of unconventional Americans. Referred to as the Chicago school monographs by social historians, these works brought acclaim to the country''s premiere graduate program in sociology. Working at the shadowy margins of the city, these Chicago school scholars dramatically examined the lives of delinquents, prostitutes, gangsters, and homeless men. Their work harmonized with narratives of proletarian and pulp fiction and the serialized newspaper accounts of urban vice and deviance. This book offers a survey of some of these key monographs such as The Unadjusted Girl, The Hobo, The Jack-Roller and The Taxi Dance Hall.
