The print version of a collection of posts from my blog, which should be available in September. Also as an e-book. Meanwhile, I keep doing posts for the blog -- Wild New York next, and then Religion in New York.

The forthcoming book is a collection of posts for my blog, No Place for Normal: New York. The ideas come from personal reminiscences, historical research I did in the past, stories friends have told me, and walks in the city.
