Its history may be short compared to that of European cities, but it is also a history marked by lightning-fast change. This pictorial journey into the history of New York City starts from the small town that began as New Amsterdam in the 17th century, tracing the unbridled expansion of the 18th century and waves of mass immigration of the 19th and 20th centuries. The authors, both experienced NYC tour guides, explore iconic districts like Times Square, Harlem, Wall Street, Central Park, Ellis Island and the Bronx, bringing the past and people to life through engaging stories and images. An inspired selection of archival photos, prints, vintage maps, stereographs, and ephemera make this publication, with its elegant, silver-edged finish, a fascinating visual homage to the vibrant city that is New York today.

HB, 240 x 163 mm, 240 p, met zilver op snee, NL edition , Publication date: Nov. 20. ISBN 9789463887496. Een fotografische reis naar het wervelende verleden van een metropolis die blijft verbazen Er wordt gezegd dat je in New York geen twee keer dezelfde wandeling kunt maken. Haar geschiedenis is kort in vergelijking met die van Europese steden, maar ook gekenmerkt door razendsnelle verandering. Dankzij de fotografie kunnen we ons van die fascinerende geschiedenis een beeld vormen. Dit boek neemt je mee op een boeiende reis door de tijd, van het kleine Nieuw-Amsterdam in de zeventiende eeuw, via de stormachtige expansie en massale immigratiegolven in de daaropvolgende eeuwen, naar de postindustri le metropool die ze later werd. Prachtige historische foto's maken van dit boek, elegant afgewerkt met zilver op snee, een visuele hommage aan de bruisende stad die New York vandaag is. Jacqueline Goossens en Tom Ronse zijn twee Vlaamse journalisten en erkende stadsgidsen die sinds 1980 in New York wonen en werken. In hun verhalen over iconische plaatsen en wijken zoals Times Square, Harlem, Wall Street, Central Park, Ellis Island en de Bronx ontwaakt het verleden en krijgt de lezer inzicht in hoe ze werden wat ze nu zijn. De metamorfoses van New York, de evolutie van haar architectuur, infrastructuur en kunst, worden uitvoerig belicht. Ook het leven van haar bewoners, afkomstig uit alle delen van de wereld, komt ruim aan bod. De eigen ervaringen van de auteurs geven het boek een heel persoonlijke insteek. 900 g.
