Product Description

Regarded by many as the most exciting city in the world, New York's glamour and vitality draw millions of visitors every year. This book offers 20 walks leading the visitor into the heart of Manhattan Island, exploring its world-famous landmarks and revealing pockets of city life generally known only to native New Yorkers. New York has an array of attractions: from the Empire State Building, to Central Park; from the cultural treasures of the Met, to the shopper's paradise of Macy's; from Greenwich Village, to the street markets, historic restaurants and hidden churches. This book provides details on the history, architecture, contemporary life and culture of New York City. It also includes practical visitor information on opening times and transport, with easy-to-follow route maps for each of the 20 walks.

About the Author

Writing pseudonymously, George Spelvin and Eve Devereux are a husband-and-wife team. George - the author of over 50 works of fiction and non-fiction, and recipient of various international awards including the Hugo and the World Fantasy Award - moved to Manhattan on marrying Eve, an internationally renowned appraiser and archivist. It was as they explored the city together, Eve as the expert guide who had lived there for over 20 years and George bringing fresh eyes to it, that they wrote this book.
