Weird Unknown Facts

Did you know that pickles originated in New York? This is a pretty mundane fact among a book FULL of interesting stuff. A bit more a wacky history book than a travel guide, but it will give you plenty of ideas for things to see and do, especially if you live in New York or have already seen the main touristy things. A very fun & interesting read, certainly not your run-of-the-mill book.

Fabulous!

If you have been to New York and think you know everything about it, this is the book for you. Fresh, funny, and leads to interesting dinner time conversation!
