This is a comprehensive history of New York, from the landing of the Dutch to the attack on the World Trade Center. This fascinating historical record follows fictional families of diverse cultures and ethnicities, American-born and immigrant that are all part of the fabric that is New York. Along with these fictional families the history moves between the ages from agriculture and merchant through the industrial age and, ultimately the digital age. This is a tremendous work. It is heavy and long but also enjoyable. Happy Reading!
