The American Settlement Movement was an influential part of the
social welfare reforms of the Progressive Era. In an era when
America became an urban industrialized nation, the development of
the settlement house was interwoven with that of the American city,
and settlement workers, living and working among the poor in the
city, were in the vanguard of a wide range of social welfare reform
initiatives. This selective bibliography covers titles providing an
introduction and overview of the American Settlement Movement.
Arranged in six categories, the titles include materials
pertaining to the influence of the English Settlement Movement on
the United States, general surveys discussing the American
Settlement Movement within the context of larger reform efforts,
studies focused on the Settlement Movement, biographical titles,
settlement workers' research and case studies, and reference works.
The bibliography provides easy access to the literature of the
American Settlement Movement.
