"Consider this a gentle reminder as to why New York is the greatest
city in the world. And as Simon de Beauvoir once said, there is
something in the New York air that makes sleep useless. Featuring
nearly 200 maps, each charting the five boroughs, Harmon's book
gives you a glimpse of New York's past and future. Harmon's mapping
of New York includes everything, from mythical locations that could
have once existed to the real history of NYC. Harmon's collection
re-emphasises why New York is a mapmaker's delight."
