Kennedy's book has brought to life the New York that I've only heard about. Lost New York in Postcards sparked memories from everyone in my family and made Christmas 2001 a very special day. The brilliance of the illustrations and the charm of the narrative make this a book worth owning.
Beautifully crafted view of the New York I never knew!

Kennedy's collection brings to life the old New York I never knew, but now wish I had... The graphics are fabulous, and, together with the well-executed captions, provide insight into what this magnificent city was like in its hey-day. Well worth the price! The book is as colorful as the city it paints -- and Kennedy's love for New York shines through on every page.
