"We get a lot of 'Portraits of...' and location guides at AP (Amateur Photographer), and frankly, they're about ten a penny. You can sense the photographer ticking off the boxes on each pages. New York (Portrait of a City), however, is quite different. Thick, bold, epic and iconic. TASCHEN's latest Portrait of... complies more than 600 images by over 150 top photographers that document the Big Apple's stratospheric rise from the mid-19th century to its present-day status as the culture capital of the world... New York demonstrates the benefits of having a good editor, as the images flow seamlessly through decades, eras and themes. What's great about this compendium, as well, is that many of these images you haven't seen before. It's a stunning collection."— Amateur Photographer, London, United Kingdom
