'When They Were Young' was written by Robert Coles, an esteemed child psychiatrist and recipient of both a Pulitizer Prise and The PresidentialMedal of Freedom. There are photographs here of children from all walks of life, the late 1800s, early 1900s, and through the Mid-Century. They are all monochrome; exquisite and endearing. This is a 2002 First Edition from Kales Press and The Library of Congress. The 160-page book is clean, bright and unmarked. It's a remarkable history of children, with text by Dr. Coles. "Childhood know the human heart." Edgar Allen Poe less
