Description:Excerpt from People of Destiny: Americans as I Saw Them, at Home and AbroadFirst time when the ordinary life of that City of Adventure - always so vital and dynamic in activity - was intensified by the emotion of historic days. The war was over, and the warriors were coming home with the triumph of victory as the reward of courage; but peace was still delayed and there had not yet crept over the spirits of the people the staleness and disillusionment that always follow the ending of war, when men say: What was the use of it, after all? Where are gratitude and justice? Who pays me for the loss of my leg? The emotion of New York life was visible in its streets. The city itself, monstrous, yet dreamlike and mystical as one sees it first rising to fantastic shapes through the haze of dawn above the waters'.
