If you're a New Yorker, you'll enjoy reading/looking at the photos in this book. I wish there were less sports and more city scenes. I would have loved to see more Christmas photos as there is no where in the world better than New York at Christmastime. Brought back a lot of memories for me.

This book is a collection of old photos from the files of the New York Times. All of New York is here from the last hundred years, including the skyscrapers, the people, the big events. I loved browsing through this seven-hundred-plus page collection of intriguing photographs.
