About this product

Product Information

"I loved this book and all the great memories it captured." --Tom Brokaw Over Here , the latest chronicle of the history of New York City by Lorraine B. Diehl--lifetime resident of the Big Apple and author of The Late, Great Pennsylvania Station and Subways --relates the true story of New York City during World War II. From the Brooklyn Naval Yard to Times Square nightclubs, from children's Mickey Mouse gas-masks to victory gardens in Rockefeller Center, Over Here is a nostalgic portrait of the Greatest Generation and the Empire City. Including anecdotes from famous New Yorkers and visitors such as Angela Lansbury, Walter Cronkite, and Barbara Walters, and richly illustrated with more than 80 period photographs, Over Here is an inspiring tribute to New York City during the Great War.

Reviews
Diehl tells the story rich in detail, with intelligence and infectious-though never blind-enthusiasm.", Meticulously details the ignominy and economic folly that attended the destruction of one of New York's most impressive public places., Praise for THE LATE, GREAT PENNSYLVANIA STATION:"Diehl has now brought the station vividly back to life with a highly readable and beautifully illustrated tribute.", Diehl tells the story rich in detail, with intelligence and infectious--though never blind--enthusiasm.", Praise for SUBWAYS:"A breezy historical overview, taking us back to the pre-subway days when the streets of New York were almost impassable . . . through the heroic days of underground tunnel construction and the nickel fare, we come to see why. . . the subway was the great emancipator., Lorraine Diehl has done it again. This is an evocative look at New York City during the Second World War; it is an enthusiastic, personal, immensely entertaining book, and a story about a city joining together to overcome the greatest challenge of the 20th Century. Brava!
