Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from What I Saw in New-York: Or a Bird´s Eye View of City Life The author, in holding up to view a brief outline of "City Sights" and scenes, would acknowledge his indebtedness to those individuals who have so kindly contributed to the accomplishment of his object; while he would not forget the Press, that ever prolific source of sights and sounds from whence many appropriate and useful hints have been derived for the present occasion. The reader is doubtless aware that it often requires much more labor, to present facts than fiction. And, that it is not infrequently more difficult still, to make the former so acceptable as the latter. This may be emphatically true, in regard to the following volume; as a less flattering account of civic advantages, than some may naturally expect, must be given, if the dark side of the picture is not to be altogether concealed. In presenting a variety of topics which must necessarily embrace objects more or less attractive and repulsive, new and old, good and bad; the author does not aim or care to observe any very nice arrangement of subjects, while he is well aware that he has left altogether unnoticed many interesting appendages of New-York.
