Before skyscrapers and streetlights glowed at all hours, American cities fell into inky blackness with each setting of the sun. But over the course of the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, technologies began to light up streets, buildings, and public spaces. This book depicts the changing experience of the urban night over this period.
