This, along with all other books written by Angelika Taschen, is worth to buy for yourself to put on your coffeetable or to gift to someone. The photography is amazing. The price is great too as I’ve seen it retailed for $45 in some clothing stores and home furnishing stores. This book will entertain the fashionista since it details the shops of NYC, the foodie, as it lists the many restaurants of NYC, the traveler because it has an overview of the hotels in NYC and a city map, and anyone who enjoys beautiful photography. Fun and beautiful book. Check out Angelika’s other books too, I have most of them and they are all worth the price.
This book is a great way to enjoy the greatest place on earth: New york City. Just stroll around and shop, sit down in a hotel lobby or try some great places to eat out! And the best thing is: you don’t need to spend a single dollar. Just sit down and relax and enjoy the city where everything is possible.
This is a great book. The pictures are beautiful. There are so many hotels and restaurants and stores that I didn’t know exist in New York until I purchased this book. Being a New Yorker who now resides in Florida I truly recommend this book.
