Sketches of Events
The events appearing in A Dirty Year were widely covered in the papers. Journals such as Frank Leslie's Illustrated Weekly, the Day's Doings, and the Illustrated Police News provided sketches of what was happening, including some of the ones in this gallery. All these scenes appear in the book, some as critical points in the story, others as sideshows..
