Summary "Newark's Last Fifteen Years, 1904-1919. The Story in Outline" is a historical account likely produced in the early 20th century. The book focuses on a significant period in the urban development of Newark, New Jersey, summarizing various changes and advancements in the city during those years. The work is structured as a compilation of facts and events, making it a resourceful guide for understanding the evolution of Newark's civic, cultural, and infrastructural landscape. The opening portion elaborates on the motivation behind the creation of this compilation, detailing the library staff's initiative to gather and write about Newark's history for educational purposes, particularly for schoolchildren. It reflects on the notable transformations from 1904 to 1919, including infrastructural developments such as new public buildings and the evolution of local governance. The text hints at broader socio-political contexts, like the impact of global events such as World War I on local dynamics. Ultimately, it lays the groundwork for a comprehensive overview of Newark’s historical and civic progress within the specified timeframe. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
