"We may say that we have here, not just another of the many books about New York, but one which does our historian credit and adds for most of us a new dimension to our knowledge of our city. " * -The New York Times Book Review *

Reseña del editor:

A collection of some 600 excerpts from contemporary essays and letters, plus numerous b&w photos and reproductions, capturing a panoramic picture of the city from Dutch days to the 1950s. Pieces by authors such as James Fenimore Cooper, Charles Dickens, and Mark Twain are organized chronologically, covering eras such as the early national period, the emergence of the modern city (1870-1900), and the golden generation (1900-1930). A new introduction by James F. Richardson brings the account up to date.. NOTA: El libro no está en español, sino en inglés.
