ກ່ຽວກັບປຶ້ມ e-book ນີ້
The classic memoir of one of the Progressive Era’s most important reformers and social activists.
If it is natural to feed the hungry . . . it is certainly natural to give pleasure to the young, comfort to the aged, and to minister to the deep-seated craving for social intercourse that all men feel.
In 1889, Jane Addams and her partner, Ellen Starr, opened the first settlement house in the United States. On Chicago’s West Side, Hull House was devoted to the city’s poor and forgotten, from immigrants and unwed mothers to the elderly, homeless, and hungry. Its charter proclaimed its mission “to provide a center for higher civic and social life, to institute and maintain educational and philanthropic enterprises, and to investigate and improve the conditions in the industrial districts of Chicago.” In Twenty Years at Hull House, Addams chronicles her revolutionary work from its conception in the Gilded Age through the dawn of the Progressive Era.
A cofounder of the American Civil Liberties Union and the first American woman to win the Nobel Peace Prize, Addams devoted her life to realizing a more noble vision of democracy. More than a personal memoir, Twenty Years at Hull-House is a landmark document of social theory and political history.

Jane Addams (1860–1935) cofounded the Hull House—one of the first settlement houses in the United States—in Chicago, Illinois, in 1889. She served as the first female president of the National Conference of Charities and Corrections and the first president of the Women’s International League for Peace and Freedom. In 1911, Addams helped establish the National Federation of Settlements. For her valiant activism on behalf of mothers, families, and the working class, Addams was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize in 1931, becoming the first American woman to win the prize. Addams’s memoir Twenty Years at Hull House chronicles her life devoted to activism and the betterment of mankind.
