Summary: Best Travel Guide Ever
Review: I 've had this book since 1995.Using this as my guide, I have walked most of the city from Wall Sreet to Harlem. As you walk along, you are informed about architecture, facinating details you would normally overlook, and wonderful gossipy history. ie "Boss" Tweed, dying in the jail he built, and "the Bloody Angle" on Doyer St. in Chinatown. See Wall Street, Chinatown, Soho, the historic squares, the Lower East Side, the Village, mid-town, Upper East, Upper West, Central Park, Morningside Heights, Harlem, the Cloisters. No matter how well you know Manhattan, this will give you new insight on familiar territory. I'm looking for copies of this book because everyone wants to borrow mine, and I hate to part with it.
