Overview

New York is a powerful metropolis with an impact that is felt worldwide. The five boroughs, consisting of Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, The Bronx, and Staten Island, each offer a unique flavor built from the city's history and its people. New York City is always changing and endlessly fascinating. Ever since the ports opened, immigrants have flooded in and called the place home. They changed its flavor by transplanting cultural elements from their own countries. Some 800 languages can be heard on its streets, ensuring that every one of its nearly 60 million visitors can feel at home. New York is also a striking travel destination for vacations and cultural tours. The megacity hugs one of the world's largest natural harbors. The Brooklyn Bridge, One World Trade Center, Times Square, the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, and Central Park are each worth the trip. The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Rockefeller Center Observation Deck, the National 9/11 Memorial and Museum, and the Manhattan skyline draw travelers back again and again. Prepare for the journey down Wall Street, to Ellis Island, on the Staten Island Ferry and back to Madison Square Garden and Grand Central Station with the artictic perspective of Nuances of New York. In the Travel Photo Art series, traditional tourism panoramas mix with arthouse aesthetics. These slim, passport sized productions are your passport to new perspectives on famous places. Peer around corners and discover a unique way to interact with monuments and memorials you thought you knew. This popular series includes titles that mix text with the pictures. Books like Notre Dame Cathedral: Our Lady of Paris, featuring photos taken months before the 2019 fire, become keepsakes associated with a specific site. Titles like Lidice Lives and Terezin and Theresienstadt are deeply meaningful for families touched by the Holocaust.
