This is the second book I've read by this author and it was even more wonderful than the first (Snow in August). Fantastic, engaging, extremely well-researched. I know a little bit of NYC history, but I learned a little more with this book, which also puts all that history into a very personal context. Cormac O'Connor is a wonderful main character. You feel his pain and joy. Pete Hamill is an author I'll be keeping on my own shelf.
