      abstract = {Between 1875 and 1920, Chicago's homicide rate more than  quadrupled. Based on an analysis of nearly six thousand  homicide cases, First in Violence, Deepest in Dirt examines  the ways in which industrialization, immigration, poverty,  ethnic and racial conflict, and powerful cultural forces  reshaped Chicago city life and generated soaring levels of  lethal violence. From rage killers to the "Baby Bandit  Quartet," Jeffrey Adler offers a dramatic portrait of  Chicago during a period in which the characteristic  elements of modern homicide in America emerged.},
