About this listen
In I Never Knew That About New York, Christopher Winn digs beneath the gleaming towers and mean streets of New York and discovers its secrets and its hidden treasures.
Learn about the extraordinary people who built New York into one of the world's great cities in just 400 years. New York is one of the most photographed and talked about cities in the world, but Winn unearths much that is unexpected and unremembered in this fast-moving, ever-changing metropolis where history is made on a daily basis!
Christopher Winn's first book was the best-selling I Never Knew That About England. Volumes on Ireland, Scotland, Wales, and London followed, and he has recently published books on the English, Scottish, and Irish alongside an illustrated edition of I Never Knew That About England.
A freelance writer and collector of trivia for over 20 years, he has worked with Terry Wogan and Jonathan Ross and sets quiz questions for television as well as for The Daily Mail and The Daily Telegraph. He is also the associate producer for a TV series by ITV on Great Britain, airing in 2014.

Two books in one - History and Walking Tour of NYC
What did you like best about this story?
As a visitor to NYC twice over the past decade, I am keen to get back there again and explore more of what that amazing city has to offer. I found this book great in a number of ways - one it provides me with an interesting history of Manhattan; and two it is written in such a way that I can use it as a Walking Tour guide.
I've set bookmarks at all the places I would really love to see on my next visit (and judging by the number of bookmarks it will need to be an extended trip) - and to know about the history of those places will make the experience even better.
I'm very happy to have purchased this book and would recommend it to anyone wanting to find out more about NYC.
