Combine a neighborhood in turmoil, a strong blue-collar family, and a teenager with middle-class instincts -- what do you get? Row House Blues. . . . In jack Myers' sequel to Row House Days, the Southwest Philadelphia neighborhood of Jimmy Morris' childhood is no longer simply declining -- it's plunging headlong into the abyss. As neighbors sell out and flee for the suburbs, a painful choice confronts the Morris Family: to remain in their once-comfortable row home, or to opt for a new life beyond the city limits.The definitive, hard-hitting story of white America's late 20th-century exodus from our inner cities.
