Table of ContentsReviewsIn Making Good Neighbors, Abigail Perkiss describes the creation of an interracial urban neighborhood during the civil rights, racial power, and post civil rights eras. The basic history of West Mount Airy is known to many people across the United States and particularly in the Philadelphia region. What most people do not know, and what Perkiss presents here in rich detail, are the nuances and knotty complications that characterized the inception and development of an intentionally integrated neighborhood. In clear and often forceful prose, she offers a highly readable study of an important neighborhood in an important city.
