The Orphan Trains and Newsboys of New York is a nonfiction American history composition about the trains that departed New York City carrying more than 250,000 children from various East Coast orphanages. During a span of seventy-five years, these trains traveled to all points West across the United States in an effort to find the children families and homes. The placing out in America became known as the largest mass migration of children ever to take place in US history never to be duplicated again. The collection of stories effectively communicates little known details about the children who faced nearly insurmountable odds. From agonizing letters written by desperate mothers, to news stories of the latest train, or of newsboys looking out for each other, the humanity of individuals caught up in the sweep of history is unmistakable. Over 200 hauntingly good photographs lend authenticity to these fascinating stories of kindhearted benefactors and the irrepressible youngsters they served.
