Description

Book Synopsis
"There are two reasons the guide has entered the pantheon of New York books. One is its encyclopedic nature, and the other is its inimitable style--'smart, vivid, funny and opinionated' as the architectural historian Christopher Gray once summed it up in pithy W & W fashion."--The New York Times

Trade Review
Huge and gloriously entertaining book...This book has the edge on Pevsner in scope, humour and approachability. * The Independent *
Gloriously entertaining... exuberant and scrupulous. * Chris Hirst, The Independent *
