Ashton, Jean; Nazionale, Nina; and The Staff of the New-York Historical Society Library. When Did the Statue of Liberty Turn Green? & 101 Other Questions About New York City. New York: Columbia University Press, 2010. First edition, first printing, with full number line '10-1.' Trade paperback, 5.5 × 8.25 in. 180 pp. Foreword by Ric Burns. A lively compendium of New York City curiosities, myths, and documented oddities, compiled by librarians at the New-York Historical Society. Topics range from architecture, neighborhoods, and political milestones to cultural trivia and forgotten urban legends. Each question is accompanied by brief, well-sourced essays and archival images drawn from the Society's collections. The title query about the Statue of Liberty's natural patina is just one of many facts unearthed from over two centuries of New York's evolving civic life. Condition: Near Fine. Clean, bright, and unmarked; faint surface wear to rear panel and minimal rubbing to extremities. Square binding and crisp textblock; no spine creasing. Jean Ashton served as Executive Vice President and Director of the New-York Historical Society Library and was a leading voice in archival access and humanities education. Nina Nazionale is Director of Library Operations at NYHS, curating major exhibitions on American identity and urban history. Their collaboration brings together institutional expertise and an affection for New York's layered past. …
