xennicole 's review for:
A History of New York in 101 Objects
by Sam Roberts
First Reads Win.
At first, the reader will be disappointed because the items you except to be in the book are not. However, the book wins you over fairly quickly with the things they include, starting from the creation of New York to present, which tells the history of a ever changing city in a ever changing world. A mini history of NY is really the history of the world. Some objects are very subjective to the author while others are common sense objects to be included. It was a fun read and will be a great coffee book table.
