New York is a breath-taking city packed with magnificent architecture and some of the most spectacular museums in the world, not to mention the shopping extravaganza available almost 24/7. In this guide you will find all the sights and top attractions explored in an easy-to-read A-Z format helping you navigate your way through the tremendous array of sights. Superb 3D laminated illustrations display the key highlights in perspective and include the Brooklyn Bridge, Chrysler Building and a unique view underneath Manhattan, all brought to life at the turn of a page. Clear and concise background texts cover New York's fascinating and somewhat turbulent cultural heritage and history, tracing key events from the first American Indians that settled to the arrival of the Europeans and beyond. Special feature pages cover topics of particular interest that give a rare glimpse into everyday life and throughout the guide you will find answers to some of New York's more intriguing cultural questions such as 'Who invented the hot dog and when?' and 'Why is New York called the Big Apple?'.
