About this ebook
Anyone who hearts New York will love this illustrated homage to the city. Artist, author, and New Yorker Julia Rothman brings humor and tenderness to an eclectic assortment of historical tidbits (how the New York Public Library lion sculptures got their names), idiosyncratic places to visit (where to find the tennis courts at Grand Central Station), interviews with locals (thoughts on love from a Hasidic Jewish landlord), and personal recollections from growing up in the Bronx (fried fish at Johnny's Reef)—all illuminated in her beloved signature style. A uniquely entertaining and informative city guide, this slice of the Big Apple will delight New York locals and visitors alike.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5A beautiful book that is so much more than an illustrated guide to one of the greatest cities in the world, New York.Through lovely illustrations and unpretentious language, this becomes a hymn not just to the city itself but to the people who are the heart of it, to multiculturalism,tolerance,honesty.A lesson as to how we can all live together and create wonders...
