About This Item
Harper & Row, 1963. Hardcover. Near Fine in Very Good DJ. Later printing of the trade edition, near fine cloth hardcover shows light bit of rubbing at bottom cover edges, in very good lightly rubbed jacket (price at flap) that shows soem edge wear including a few short closed tears and tiny open chip at bottom corner of rear panel. 290 pages with a set of black & white plates. Still a nice copy of this work that "through the Demorests, arbiters of fashion and passionate reformers, ...tells the turbulent story of New York City from pre-Civil War days to the Golden Nineties
