Produktinformationen zu „New Yorkers: A Feisty People Who Will Unsettle, Madden, Amuse and Astonish You (ePub)“

A quirky memoir by a longtime resident, with glances at his city's history and bits of travel lore all rolled into one. Weird and surprising facts that will interest visitors and resident alike.

Readers will learn

how the Statue of Liberty almost didn't happen;

how the author found the sacred in the city, attended his dying partner, and learned the Charleston on You Tube;

how mobsters shared the corridors of the legendary Waldorf Astoria hotel with the Duke and Dutchess of Windsor and an ex-president;

whose funeral caused an all-day riot;

which flashy modern hotel would-be suicides should avoid at all costs, and why;

and how the author had an affair with a Broadway chorus boy (if the Cardinal Archbishop of New York could do it, so could he).

Plus Mohawks, hustlers, scams and cons, wigmakers and crematory managers, racoons in Central Park, Trump Tower, cholera, and the Beatles. A fun book, but with some serious moments.

New York is the most exciting city in the world. The author wants to share it with everyone.

Autoren-Porträt von Clifford Browder

Clifford Browder is a writer living in New York. He has published two biographies, a critical study, and three nonfiction works about New York and New Yorkers: No Place for Normal: New York, Fascinating New Yorkers, and New Yorkers: A Feisty People. His Metropolis series of historical fiction set in nineteenth-century New York has five novels to date: The Pleasuring of Men (his only gay-themed work), Bill Hope: His Story, Dark Knowledge, The Eye That Never Sleeps, and Forbidden Brownstones. His poetry has appeared online and in print.

His blog, No Place for Normal: New York, is about anything and everything New York. A longtime resident, he lives in Greenwich Village high above the Magnolia Bakery of "Sex and the City" fame, and thinks New York is the most exciting city in the world.

He has never owned a television, a car, or a cell phone. Mostly vegan, he is fascinated by slime molds, never kills spiders, and eats garlic to fend off vampires. (So far, it seems to be working.)
