Brooklyn: The Once and Future City

Princeton/Oxford: Princeton University Press. Near Fine in Near Fine dj. (c.2019). First Edition. Hardcover. [faint tea-stain on fore-edge, otherwise a nice clean book with no significant wear; the jacket is just a teensy bit wrinkled at the crown of the spine]. (B&W photographs, facsimiles, maps) In this "unprecedented history of Brooklyn, told through its places, buildings, and the people who made them," the author "recounts the creation of places familiar and long forgotten, both built and never realized, bringing to life the individuals whose dreams, visions, rackets, and schemes forged the city we know today." ****NOTE that additional postage charges will be assessed for international shipping of this heavy book; if this concerns you, please contact us for a shipping quote before placing your order.**** .
