Representation of Minorities and Oddities in Nineteenth Century Headlines
In a collage of social vignettes a photographer mocks children and fashion, Irish-American expatriates in Paris are lampooned, Mormon stage polygamy is ridiculed, Baptist membership tallies are cited, and a Pittsburgh wedding links a 76 year old groom to a 23 year old bride. The prose blends satire with anecdote, noting cultural pretensions and marriage quirks amid broader remarks on voting, wealth, and social norms.
