A review by aljosa
New York by Edward Rutherfurd

5.0

Although "London" is better in terms of having a more interesting history, "New York" is an interesting book.
Edward Rutherfurd brilliantly shows both the rich and the poor, the Loyalists and the Patriots, the haters and the hated ones. He also wrote about several different Ethnic groups. Native Americans, African Americans, the Dutch, the English, the Irish, the Germans, the Italians, the Jews and the Portoricans... They are all present in this book. Some are rich, the others are poor. Some lost their wealth, the others gained it. You can find the complete history of the USA. (~350 years)
