In the following extract from Greater Gotham, historian Mike Wallace discusses how the New York City's flourishing economy influenced the career opportunities available to women in the early 1900s. New York as we know it now was forged during this time, and Wallace translates Gotham's grit and gusto to the page perfectly." Mayor De Blasio later stated that the committee’s function would be decidedly less cinematic; after ninety days, it would simply issue guidelines for how to handle monuments deemed “inconsistent with the values of New York City.” Depending on how one defines that term, this might include the statue of Christopher Columbus, at Columbus Circle, the monument to the physician J. Marion Sims, at Fifth Avenue and 103rd Street, or the marker for Philippe Pétain, the French First World War hero who became a Nazi collaborator, on lower Broadway. Im deutschsprachigen Raum findet die Ausstrahlung seit dem 29. --Joseph Berger, "Nobody knows New York history like Wallace, and his tightly organized tome is a masterwork on a crucial period in the city's history. An indispensable new resource that illuminates and explains how the city we know today came to be."

I've spent a couple months with this book already and have found so many new marvels among the pages. The resulting mosaic is as loud and boisterous as the city it describes, a city pushing and lunging and rushing into a new century it fully intended to dominate."
"Greater Gotham is an engaging, provocative, highly-informative, and beautifully-written history of New York just as it assumes its position of privilege on the world stage. I suspect its trove of particular details will continue to enthrall me in years to come." Henry Louis Gates, W. E. B. The other half would be to create new monuments to events in history that have gone unheralded, such as the Brownsville, Brooklyn, site of the first Planned Parenthood clinic, which Margaret Sanger opened in 1916, and the route, down Fifth Avenue, of the N.A.A.C.P.’s silent march of some ten thousand African-Americans, in 1917, to protest lynching. The kaleidoscope dazzles with every move of the hand." The eighteen-member commission, which includes artists, architects, historians, an anthropologist, and Harry Belafonte, was charged with the unenviable task of reviewing the city’s constellation of memorials for contemporary appropriateness. Mutig, ehrlich und bereit sich zu beweisen, so ist der junge Gordon als er als kleiner Detective bei der Polizei von Noch am Tatort trifft Gorden den einzigen Überlebenden, den für ein Kind merkwürdig ernsthaften und reifen 12-jährigen Sohn der Waynes, Als er immer tiefer in das Dickicht von Gothams korrupten und vom organisierten Verbrechen unterwanderten Justizsystem vordringt trifft Gordon auf die Mafia-Größe und Nachtclubbesitzerin Der rote Faden der Crime-Serie ist zwar Gordons turbulenter und beispielloser Aufstieg durch die Reihen von Gothams Polizeibehörden, aber auch die ungewöhnliche Freundschaft die zwischen Gordon und dem jungen Millionenerben Bruce Wayne und dessen unerschütterlichen Butler So hast du deine Lieblings-Communitys immer dabei und verpasst nie wieder etwas. --"Wallace covers everything in this immense and compulsively readable volume: art, architecture, music, politics, finance, theater, civil rights, and, as this part of his story winds down, the odd effects of World War I on the city.
