Reviews
"The story of New York City, like that of an ancient myth, needs to be told again and again, because the drama never ends and because the past appears different depending on when you pause to look back. Ric Burns and James Sanders have published a hefty but fleetly narrated volume that starts with Henry Hudson's arrival in 1609 and ends with the most current of the city's innumerable recoveries. The illustrations are so luscious they're practically edible, and the writing is lively and well researched. What makes the book a joy is all the varied and vibrant New York voices and images so vivid you want to dive in." --Justin Davidson, New York magazine "The passionate desire to explore and celebrate is evident in Ric Burns and Janes Sanders' updated and expanded edition of their landmark book, New York: An Illustrated History . The only book of its kind, this beautifully illustrated volume spans four centuries from 1625 until today, documenting spirit of the 'City of Dreams' from revolution and resistance to the resilience of its inhabitants--capturing all that is extraordinary and heartbreaking about this wonderful city, 'so nice they named it twice.'" --A. M. Homes, author of May We Be Forgiven and The Mistress's Daughter, "This book combines striking illustrations with scintillating essays to produce a superb history of the world's first city." --Arthur Schlesinger Jr. "A ravishing book . . . It can easily fill a winter of reading and browsing." -- New York Times

Synopsis
A revised and expanded edition of the landmark, ravishing history of New York City-the companion volume to the acclaimed PBS series-that begins in 1624 and brings its 400-year-long story up to the current moment. This edition of the biography of this great and ever-evolving city includes two new chapters that deliver a sweeping portrait of New York since September 11, 2001. Here is the city at the dawn of the 21st century, having emerged from decades of decline to assert its place at the very center of a new globalized culture. Yet, here too is a city challenged-indeed, sometimes shaken to its core-by a series of profound crises- the aftermath of 9/11, the continual struggle with racial injustice, the financial crisis of 2008, the devastation of Superstorm Sandy, the still unfolding cataclysm of the COVID-19 pandemic. Also brought up to date in the new chapters is the lively portrait of the city's vibrant street life and culture- the birth of hip-hop in the South Bronx, Christo and Jeanne-Claude's Gates in Central Park, the celebrated Broadway musicals and songs, the explosion in location filmmaking, the pivotal rise of the tech industry, and so much more. The history of this city-especially in the tumultuous and transformative two decades covered by the new chapters-is an epic story of rebirth and growth, of dramatic physical and economic change and exploding cultural energy, intertwined with staggering episodes of catastrophe and challenge. It is the story of an incomparable place, told in an incomparable book., An expanded edition of the only comprehensive illustrated history of New York--with more than 600 ravishing photographs and illustrations--that tells the remarkable 400-year-long story of the city from its beginning in 1624 up to the current moment. The companion volume to the acclaimed PBS series. This landmark book traces the spectacular growth of New York from its initial settlement on the tip of Manhattan through the destruction wrought by the Revolutionary War to its rise as the nation's premier commercial capital and industrial center and as a magnet for immigrant hopes and dreams in the 19th century to its standing as a beacon of modern culture in the 20th century and as a worldwide symbol of resilience in the 21st century. The story continues here with new chapters delivering a sweeping portrait of New York at the dawn of the 21st century, when it emerged after decades of decline to assert its place at the very center of a new globalized culture. Here is a city challenged--indeed, sometimes shaken to its core--by a series of profound crises: the aftermath of 9/11, the continual struggle with racial injustice, the financial crisis of 2008, the devastation of Superstorm Sandy, the still unfolding cataclysm of the COVID-19 pandemic--whose earliest and deadliest urban epicenter was New York itself. Here too is a lively portrait of the city's vibrant street life and culture: the birth of hip-hop in the South Bronx, Christo and Jeanne-Claude's Gates in Central Park, the musicals of Broadway, the explosion in location filmmaking in every borough, the pivotal rise of the tech industry, and so much more. The history of this city--especially in the tumultuous and transformative two decades detailed in the new chapters--is an epic story of rebirth and growth, an astonishing transfiguration, still in progress, of the world's first modern city into a model and prototype for the global city of the future.
