About this product

Product Information

Winner of the David J. Langum, Sr., Prize in American Historical Fiction Named one of the best books of the year by The Washington Post and "Required Reading" by the New York Post Edward Rutherfurd celebrates America's greatest city in a rich, engrossing saga, weaving together tales of families rich and poor, native-born and immigrant--a cast of fictional and true characters whose fates rise and fall and rise again with the city's fortunes. From this intimate perspective we see New York's humble beginnings as a tiny Indian fishing village, the arrival of Dutch and British merchants, the Revolutionary War, the emergence of the city as a great trading and financial center, the convulsions of the Civil War, the excesses of the Gilded Age, the explosion of immigration in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, the trials of World War II, the near demise of New York in the 1970s and its roaring rebirth in the 1990s, and the attack on the World Trade Center. A stirring mix of battle, romance, family struggles, and personal triumphs, New York: The Novel gloriously captures the search for freedom and opportunity at the heart of our nation's history.

I was looking so forward to the boxed set as described when I purchased, but only received the book, no cards. I sent message and pic of book only and the little plastic bag with all mail info. And in a day had a positive response from seller. Thank you for your quick response, and for making it right. I am happy to purchase from this seller in the future :)

    History Made Enjoyable

    An historical fiction family saga. The story spans more than three centuries of New York City history. Well researched. The storyline kept me interested as I learned facts and details about each era.

  • Another Excellent Rutherfurd Book

    Perhaps not quite on the same level as Sarum and London, but still good reading.

  • I read about my American history and met many of my ansestors via NEW YORK.

    You sit in your house and the world opens up on ebay. For whatever reason, people are finding things and placing them before you, that you would otherwise not find. This is like the power of having the metal detector on the beach. Enter your name for example and see what comes up. I love history and photographs, always did. I found a copy of NEW YORK on ebay and was snared by the description. But you know what? The book was worth ten descriptions.

  • Lot of good reading hours.

    Rutherfurd is a good writer. I have read others of his. This was fun to get them in one package.
