A framework for stabilizing and strengthening inner-city neighbourhoods through the public interpretation of historic landscapes
"[Hurley] seeks to demonstrate how, through the strategic use of public history, historic preservation might become a more effective instrument for inner-city neighborhood revitalization... Beyond Preservation [is] valuable because it provides lessons for those who are considering embarking on public history projects in the inner city, explaining just how frustrating they can become. This kind of community service is hard work. But there are overriding benefits to participating in a city's evolution and writing about it." - Journal of Urban Affairs
