David Stravitz
New York, Empire City: 1920-1945

2004 y.
Publisher: —
Description: New York between the wars: the city of Babe Ruth, Checker cabs, and Zelda Fitzgerald`s infamous dip in the fountain at the Plaza Hotel. That is the city that comes gloriously to life in this fascinating collection of 100 historical photographs of New York`s notable streetscapes and landmarks. Discovered serendipitously by author David Stravitz when he was on a hunt for used camera equipment, these rare photographs of the city are accompanied here by informative captions and an insightful essay by architectural historian Christopher Gray. Not only are these photographs being published for the first time, but the clarity and detail of the images, taken with a large-format camera, are astonishing. One can read the signage on the sides of buildings, examine the items in store windows, and see how people on the streets and sidewalks are dressed. From Trinity Church to Harlem, from Coney Island to Yankee Stadium, these images transport the reader into the heart of a vanished era,… [detailed...]

New York: A Photographic Album

2009 y.
Publisher: Universe Publishing
Description: This keepsake album is the freshest collection of images published in many years savoring the many facets of New York. Some intimate and detailed, others wide-angled, these photographs explore the grand chaotic serendipity that makes New York so vibrant. Tourists and visitors often comment on this remarkable energy - people feel more alive in New York, especially when they are new to it - and this is the perfect keepsake album that captures (and re-captures) that initial dumbstruck awe and rush of adrenaline that everyone has felt here. The photographs also explore the contrasts that define New York - the highs and the lows, the grand and the ordinary. From penthouses to piers and from bucolic Central Park to carnivalesque Coney Island, the book explores New York`s amazing contradictions that somehow come together in a unique masterpiece. From the heights of the Empire State to the nether realms of the subway, from the burlesque zaniness of Gay Pride to the busting Chinatown streets… [detailed...]

New York`s Poop Scoop Law: Dogs, the Dirt, and Due Process

2008 y.
Publisher: —
Description: It`s hard to imagine eight million people trying to avoid dog refuse on the streets of New York City on a daily basis. It`s harder not to imagine New Yorkers from all walks of life picking up after their canines. Using plastic bags or trendy, mechanized devices, pet owners have become a unified force in cleaning up the sidewalks of the Big Apple. We forget that Health Law 1310, which went into effect in 1978, was the first such legislation to work in a major city, and that the strange custom of scooping in New York continues to influence communities around the world. Not long ago, picking up after your Poodle, Puli, or Pekinese was not a basic civic duty. Initially, many politicians thought the idea was absurd. Animal rights activists were unanimously opposed. The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals condemned the proposed legislation because it would impose undue hardship on dog owners. New York`s Poop Scoop Law chronicles the integration of dog owners, a… [detailed...]

Description: Book DescriptionMichael Ryan`s New and Selected Poems is the first collection to appear in fifteen years from this acclaimed and masterly poet. Comprising fifty-seven poems from three award-winning volumes and thirty-one brilliant new poems, it displays the wit and passion he has brought to universal themes throughout his career. In both dramatic lyrics and complex narratives, Ryan renders the world with startling clarity, freshness, and intimacy. Ryan`s poems are filled with the stuff of everydaylife: What-a-Burger, Space Invaders, `the hood ornament / on some chopped down hot rod of the apocalypse.` He observes his subjects in carefully wrought detail and with a fierce compassion, describing `stupid posters of rock stars` in the bedroom of a murdered teenager, or a homeless boy `straggle-haired, bloated, / eyes shining like ice.` As Ryan writes of others, in a final `Reminder` to himself: `their light —their light — / pulls so surely. Let it.` This… [detailed...]
