I love Pete Hamill, and I think this is his masterpiece. Great story, and NYC, specifically Manhattan, is a character- from 1740's until the day after 9/11. It's an amazing, magical, uplifting, thought provoking story. The kind of book you don't want to end.
Thanks for the suggestion. This sound like a book I would enjoy. I will definitely look into this book.
