Review
This is an utterly delightful book, packed full with the most fascinating information and exquisite illustrations, this is literally like having New York in your hands.

The content is divided into New York by Food, Locals, Interest and Season, and within each category there is so much detail, Cierra has researched her content carefully, as she shares,

Every map she has created is based on an idea, ‘Where is the best place for lunch?’ ‘Where are the best places to visit?’’

As well as her beautifully illustrated and annotated maps, Cierra has included details of where each landmark, or venue is located, this is a beautiful and useful guide to some of the most special places in New York.

We absolutely love it! One of our Favourite books of 2023! Very Highly Recommended!
