Family Properties: Race, Real Estate, and the Exploitation of Black Urban AmericaThis is one terrific book -- focused, hard-hitting and extremely readable. I will not go into details; a growing number of glowing reviews from the New York Times,the Washington Post and others take care of that. In brief, Satter has written an instant classic about exloitative contract sales to blacks that were common in many cities from World War II to the late 1960s. This is a must read for anyone wanting to understand why America's big cities turned out the way they did.
