Some of the topics covered include the city's architecture, its bustling streets and markets, the various ethnic communities that lived there, and the city's politics and government.Prime also devotes a significant portion of the book to discussing the city's religious institutions and the role they played in the lives of its residents. He provides detailed descriptions of the city's churches, synagogues, and other places of worship, as well as the various religious sects and denominations that existed at the time.Throughout the book, Prime's writing is lively and engaging, and he frequently injects his own opinions and observations into his descriptions of the city.
