This study samples a number of New York "slumming" narratives--including Stephen Crane's Bowery tales. Paul Laurence Dunbar's The Sport of the Gods. Hutchins Hapgood's The Spirit of the Ghetto, and Carl Van Vechten's Nigger Heaven--to characterize and examine the relationship between New York writing and the city's cultural environment from 1880 to 1930.
