Martine Assouline introduces this title as "a little tribute to the New York I love". Packed with over 300 colourful illustrations, it reveals the city's DNA through the expert lens of leading photographers - like Peter Lindbergh - and unforgettable quotes from acclaimed writers including Edith Wharton and Tom Wolfe. This volume travels through all five boroughs - Manhattan, Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens and Staten Island - exploring pivotal moments in history, from Prohibition in the 1920s and the youth revolution in the '60s to the best highlights from Broadway and the construction of the iconic skyline.
