Summary

"A Terminal Market System, New York's Most Urgent Need: Some Observations, Comments and Comparisons of European Markets" by Madeleine Black is a book that looks at the problem of moving food around New York City in the early 1900s. Black says New York needs a better market system, especially when compared with how cities in Europe handle food. She talks about how New York's markets aren't good enough for the city's people and cost the city money. On the other hand, she highlights the benefits of European markets in places like London and Paris, pointing out that they lower food costs, keep food safe with inspections, and even make money for the cities that run them. With convincing evidence, the author hopes to persuade people to back the creation of a new, efficient market system in New York.
