Policymakers and scholars have come to realize that getting food, water, and services to the millions who live in the world's few dozen megacities is one of the twenty-first century's most formidable challenges. As these populations continue to grow, apocalyptic scenarios-sprawling slums plagued by hunger, disease, and social disarray-become increasingly plausible. In Feeding Manila in Peace and War, 1850-1945, Daniel F. Doeppers traces nearly a century in the life of Manila, one of the world's largest cities, to show how it grew and what sustained it.
