Our Books On March 24, 2009, Free Press (an imprint of Simon & Schuster) will release our newest book, Inside the Apple: A Streetwise History of New York City. This compact history traces the narrative of New York from the arrival of Henry Hudson 400 years ago to the rebuilding of the World Trade Center site that is going on today. Broken down into 182 “bite-sized” chapters, the book can read cover to cover, but is also designed so that you can use it as a handy reference or a walking tour guide. At the back of the book, 14 self-guided walking tours allow readers to take the book’s stories and string them together for their own explorations of the city. The book is available for pre-order from Amazon and other online merchants. For much more information about the book, including information about public appearances, links for ordering the book online, and our New York City history blog, go to www.insidetheapple.net. ________________________________________________________________ In March 2008, our first guidebook, Frommer’s 24 Great Walks in New York was released.
