PRAISE FOR PETE HAMILL:
"Few people have written quite so beautifully about New York as Hamill has in recent years."―Tim Rutten, Los Angeles Times
"With his reporter's eye for detail and a tough-but-tender lyricism, the Brooklyn-bred Hamill brings modern-day New York to life by illuminating its colorful past."―Scott Stephens, Cleveland Plain Dealer
"Hamill sees a world almost gone by. Those who would dismiss that world as nostalgia might consider what in today's NewYork will they have to lovingly evoke years from now."―Sherryl Connelly, New York Daily News
"New York City is the lead actor in the best of Hamill's writing...and it steals the show."―Julie Wittes Schlack, Boston Globe
"Hamill tells a good yarn and has a knack for drawing empathetic portraits of rogues and rule benders....Even a bicycle ride to the store to pick up the Daily News is a good read in Hamill's hands."―Michael Hill, San Francisco Chronicle
