Description

These recollections of "old" New York--from after WWII through the 1970s--are by celebrities and high-rollers such as Jimmy Breslin, Jerry Della Femina, Elaine Kaufman, and others who recall the nightspots and their denizens, as well as out-of-the-way neighborhoods. Photographs capture the special mood of places and times past.
