Time and Again is one of my favorite books I've ever read. Not only is the story one that will keep any reader engaged, it is set against the backdrop of New York City at the turn of the century. With amazing historical accuracy, Jack Finney describes not only everyday life during this period, but also historical events from the point of view of a citizen at that time.

This book is a must read for any New Yorker. For visitors to New York, it would be fun to read this book, then tour the Gramercy Park area of NYC, which stands not too differently from how it did during the time-frame of when Time and Again was written.
