A nostalgic, tell-it-all celebration of Brooklyn features more than one hundred original articles that tap into the life of "America's Hometown"--its eighty-one-square-mile patchwork of city, college town, quiet fishing village, industrial center, bedroom community, seaport, and more. Simultaneous.
Von der hinteren Coverseite:
Arthur Miller on Midwood, Spike Lee on Fort Greene, Susan Brownmiller as a Flatbush girl, David Levine's portraits of the artists, Mel Brooks growing up poor in Williamsburg, Mara Faye Lethem riding the Cyclone and Eli Wallach extolling the accent. Teeming with stories, characters, myth, history, photographs, street smarts and attitude, Brooklyn is a love letter to the beautiful borough.
Michael W. Robbins and Wendy Palitz are passionate Brooklynites. He is a writer and former editor of Audubon magazine, and she is a designer and was the founding are director of Brooklyn Bridge magazine.

Soft cover. Zustand: As New. 1st Edition. First edition, 1st printing, June 2001. Edited by Michael W. Robbins & Designed by Wendy Palitz. Bright, clean & tight copy, unread, in AS NEW condition. "Arthur Miller on Midwood, Spike Lee on Fort Greene, Susan Brownmiller as a Flatbush girl, David Levine's portraits of the artists, Mel Brooks growing up poor in Williamsburg, Mara Faye Lethem riding the Cyclone and Eli Wallach extolling the accent. Teeming with stories, characters, myth, history, photographs, street smarts and attitude, BROOKLYN is a love letter to the beautiful borough." [back cover copy] "'I sing of Brooklyn, the fruited plain, cradle of genius, and stand up comedy, awash in history, relics of Indian mounds, Dutch farms, Revolutionary War battles, breweries and baseball.' Thus begins an ode to a community that today would constitute the fourth-largest city in the nation had it not merged with New York City in 1898. Through 125 essays (written by such celebrities as F. Murray Abraham and Kenneth Turan) and interviews, a broad array of Brooklyn history is explored: from the Brooklyn Bridge to the Brooklyn Eagle newspaper, from Coney Island to the Brooklyn Academy of Music, from the West Indian Day parade to Green-Wood Cemetery, from beer to boxing. The raucous nostalgia for the city of old is reinforced with hundreds of black-and-white photographs. Those seeking a more critical history must look elsewhere, but for those who want their local history to go down as easy as buttered popcorn, this celebratory work will be a real joy."---Library Journal. 392+ pp w/extensive index & scads of photos. Pristine paperback w/brilliant corners & crisp edges, a square & tight binding w/no creases in spine. Quite presentable. Artikel-Nr. RUB1578
