Summary
An exceptionally large number of the over 750 photographs reproduced in New York are published for the first time. In this respect New York is a radical departure from books on the subject, as is its layoug, design, and luxurious format. The book is divided into eighteen sections, each devoted to a theme or locale. The thematic sections include Fellow Immigrants (showing some fo the diversity and variety); work and not work (physicians, garment workers, fathers minding their children, and the unemployed); Baseball, Transportation by all means (the subways, horses, and airplaines), and the final section, New Yorkers Mostly on people, seen smoking opium, protesting, communicating, and laughing.
