You cannot set foot in the same New York twice. Yet you can capture its momentary essence in City Notebook. One of the best metropolitan reporters of the 1950s, 60s, and 70s has brought together his best pieces on the City’s life.

The reality of New York is made up of millions of such instances, a mosaic of people, places, and things.
