As anyone who knows me knows: I LOVE the Village and go there every chance I get. This book is wonderful. It is a series of essays, several of which I had read before, and it really gives the reader a worthwhile and informative visit to the Village. The pictures are also terrific. Whether you're a NY native, like me, or a novice getting introduced to the Village, this is a fabulous book.
