Synopsis
In Walking New York, Harlem local Keith Taillon invites you to join him on 12 of his most popular walking tour routes, examining in depth the various neighborhoods of Manhattan, their history, and the intricacies of their formation. He traces the evolution of the Big Apple back to some of its early needs, focusing on the 19th and 20th centuries-a window in which New York City transformed from a small provincial port town into a global metropolis. Keith covers ever veiling from the completion of the Erie Canal and Croton Aqueduct to some of the notorious characters behind the city's Gilded Age. Each chapter features a suggested walking route, with a derailed map and notes on the route's length and time. Throughout each walk, readers are encouraged to pause and absorb the streetscape. Filled with interesting facts and timelines, you will gain a comprehensive understanding of why the city looks and feels the way it does. Perfect for tourists, locals and armchair travelers alike, you will see New York in a new way, learning to look up, look around, and appreciate this truly special place anew., " There is no city like New York and no better tour guide to it than Keith Taillon!

- c***t (921)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThe book I bought was reasonably priced and when it arrived it was in the 'Like New' condition specified in the listing. However, when I saw that the seller had not shipped the book after more than 15 days had passed since my order I felt I must write to say that I had actually placed an order with the seller and inquire when it planned to send the book. The brusque reply was that a tracking number was available, but no number HAD been created until I pointed out that I had placed the order.Catland by Hughes, Kathryn, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US (#356798982438)
