Manhattan and Me

A native of Greenwich Village, in Manhattan and Me: A 1950s Love of New York City, Oriana Atkinson profiles the New York City that tourists never see, reminisces about growing up there, and offers humorous criticisms of the city she loves as only a native and lifetime resident could. Building on her best-selling precursor, Moscow and Me, Oriana provides insightful commentary and history on the New York City everyone should know, especially this juicy snapshot of life in New York for the 1950s.
