Title: VERY DISAPPOINTING
Review: I love any book about New York, but this one spends so much time disparaging other books, that ultimately itlost me too. A SWEET AND ALIEN LAND: THE STORY OF DUTCH NEW YORK by Henri and Barbara van der Zee remains the unchallenged best researched and best written book about New Amsterdam. If this book hadn't received so much attention, and I hadn't waited so long for it to arrrive, I might not have judged it so firmly, but it is extremely disappointing. I do not recommend it.
