Fear and Grandeur

"New York offered an irresistible cocktail of fear and grandeur. It lured as much by its dangers and squalor as by its riches."
L.B. Deyo, Invisible Frontier

Face of America

"New York has always been the face our country showed the world: the first port of call for millions of immigrants, the capital city for President Washington's inauguration, America's chief destination for visitors from every part of the world."
L.B. Deyo and David Leibowitz, Invisible Frontier
