He was the author of several works on the seamier side of Chicago life, including Chicago by Gaslight and The Story of Lena Murphy, the White Slave; The Lost Sisterhood. This work first published around 1910 and reprinted from the 16th edition which includes three illustrations, delves into Chicago's underbelly, uncovering the city's vice in all its forms, from prostitution to pawnbroking, gambling 'hells' and saloons, and much more.
