Évaluation du vendeur 4 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book transports readers back to a bygone era, capturing the essence of Knickerbocker life in New York City during the 1830s. The author, a native New Yorker, reminisces about the city's simpler days before the arrival of large -scale immigration and industrialization transformed the landscape. From the leisurely Sunday walks to church to the intimate gatherings in grandmothers meticulously -kept parlors, the book offers a detailed glimpse into the routines and values of a society that valued order, frugality, and family. The author contrasts this world of quiet contentment with the burgeoning cosmopolitan culture of his own time, lamenting the emergence of extravagant fashion and the decline of traditional Knickerbocker hospitality. Through a series of vivid vignettes, the book provides a fascinating portrait of a city on the cusp of change, capturing the unique blend of tradition and modernity that characterized early 19th-century New York. The author's nostalgic yet insightful observations offer a valuable record of a vanished world and highlight the enduring appeal of a city whose character is always in flux. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331582694_0
