New York, Not So Little and Not So Old is an evocative and insightful exploration of the transformation of Manhattan during a period of unprecedented growth. Written with a blend of historical reverence and contemporary observation, Sarah M. Lockwood captures the spirit of New York City as it stood in the mid-1920s-a city caught between its Dutch and British colonial heritage and its destiny as the emerging financial and cultural capital of the world.

The work is divided into three distinct sections: The Little Old Town, The Not So Little Town, and The Not So Old Town, guiding the reader through the evolution of the city's geography, architecture, and social fabric. From the early settlements at the Battery to the soaring skylines of the roaring twenties, Lockwood provides a charming narrative that highlights the landmarks, legends, and neighborhoods that define the city's unique character. Detailed descriptions of local customs and historical anecdotes offer a window into the daily lives of New Yorkers across the centuries.
