FOREWORD


The writers of this work believe that history is not merely books for occasional consultation, but something to read. While yielding considerably to the demands of a statistical age, they have tried to emphasize human values, and to tell a big story entertainingly as well as accurately.


They were persuaded to this undertaking mainly by pride in their home town. Here is a great and unique city. How did it originate? What were its sources and streams of development? What kind of people have created it, and by what processes? What are its animating principles? What idea, if any, does it represent? What has it accomplished? THIS CLEVELAND OF OURS tries to answer such questions. It is a narrative and also an attempted interpretation.


It has seemed needless to tell at length many things already told adequately by Col. Charles Whittlesey, James H. Kennedy, Elroy M. Avery, S. P. Orth and other historians. The beginnings of things that have come to fruition are considered interesting and important. Middle periods are often passed over rather scantily. The great flowering since the Centennial of 1896, much of it not written before in historical form, is presented more fully. The story ends with the year 1932.


The chief innovation will be found in the industrial chapters which make nearly half of the history. The prominence given to productive industries does not mean that the authors regard industrial success as Cleveland's highest achievement. They merely recognize that the city's life is rooted in industry, and that from such roots have come in our community some of the finest fruits of the industrial age.


Doubts of industrial glory naturally arise in these years

of business gloom. If the "Technocrats," with their pitiless charts and graphs, are right in their conclusions, a new generation may find curious reading in this portrayal of a virile American community in the heyday of private enterprise. At the time of going to press, no immediate scrapping of the capitalistic system, or liquidation of the machine age, is anticipated. Nor, it may be added, any prompt entrance into a mechanized millennium.


The writers realize that in the method of treatment largely used, they often seem to have gone far afield from what is regarded as the province of local history. They have tried to present Cleveland life and accomplishment in broad relationships, mindful of the Hindu sage who says that Brahma created the Universe in order that, contemplating it, he might comprehend himself.


The authors whose names tHis history bears wish to record their gratitude for the generous and effective help given them by Dr. Charles Franklin Thwing and Mr. Elbert Hall Baker, as editorial advisers. Also their appreciation of the capable assistance of Mr. W. C. Malin, by whom the chapters with his initials, in the second volume, were written.


WILFRED H. ALBURN and

MIRIAM R. ALBURN.


Cleveland, O., Dec. 20, 1932.
