NEW YORK, YOU'RE A WONDERFUL TOWN!: Fifty-Plus Years of Chronicling Gotham

Henrik Krogius, . . Arcade, $35 (208pp) ISBN 978-1-55970-698-8

With a running narrative that links the 120 b&w and 24 color photos in this 8½"×11" book to his more than 50 years of peripatetically chronicling New York, Emmy Award–winning TV news-producer Krogius here makes his book debut. Part autobiography, part loose historical narrative, the text and photos present the city through the eyes of an affable, aware observer, who shows us the skyline in varying lights, streetlife in varying forms, and culture as it was produced and lived in the city.
