Summary of E.B. White's Here is New York

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 New York in 1999 can’t offer the gift of loneliness and privacy, the way it did in the book. It’s hard to feel private in the surging daily crowds at the Metropolitan Museum of Art or lonely on a side street packed with gridlocked traffic. #2 The loss of the sense of separation and connection that New Yorkers once felt with their resident celebrities is a major loss. The old New York street encounter, in which celebrities would meet fans, has almost gone by the boards thanks to street loonies and the paparazzi.
