For adults only? No, not only. Children will also enjoy recognizing what's where in the vast and ever changing city of New York. It is quite possible they will astound their elders with a comprehensive knowledge. Take a walk around the neighborhoods within these pages, and see what you find.
Why I made this book? John Steinbeck has the answer: "New York is an ugly city, a dirty city. Its climate is a scandal, its politics are used to frighten children, its traffic is madness, its competition is murderous. But once you have lived in New York and it has become your home no place else is good enough!" (Autobiography: Making of a New Yorker, New York Times, 02/01/1953)
Actually I am finishing another photo book with portraits of a pretty special species - the New Yorker. City dwellers of all kinds spread out over the pages of this new book which is entertaining and touching at the same time.
