Incredible New York

I don't believe a more entertaining book about New York has ever been written than this account, by one of our ablest social historians. It is a truly magnificent job of selection, organization and writing. I can recall no other author, with the exception of O. Henry, who has so completely captured the feeling and flavor of the world's greatest metropolis....I recommend the Morris book unreservedly to anyone who wants to know how New York became what it is.
