The New York Daily News is one of New York City's most widely read newspapers. Its front-page headlines and provocative photographs never fail to captivate its daily audience or entice the nosy, neighboring subway rider. This book, now available as an Abradale, is a collection of 320 duotone photographs, spanning 80 years, from the newspaper's unparalleled archives. Organized chronologically by decade, the photographs capture all of the heart and guts of the big city, from crammed sports stadiums and glamorous nightclubs to mean streets and treacherous rooftops. An introduction by Pete Hamill, best-selling author and former editor-in-chief of the Daily News, adds to the dramatic impact of the photographs, powerfully bringing the history of one of the greatest cities in the world to life.
