Bronx Research: Books

Now, in this first single-volume account of the northern borough published for the general reader since 1912, The Bronx emerges as a vital part of the development of New York City and as the story of the United States in microcosm.

Bill Helmreich walked every block of New York City--some six thousand miles--to write the award-winning The New York Nobody Knows. Later, he re-walked most of the Bronx to create this one-of-a-kind walking guide to the city's northern borough, from Mott Haven to City Island.
