Valentines Manual Of Old New York Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from Valentine's Manual of Old New York, Vol. 3 Time passes so rapidly that in a few years subscribers to the Manual will be amazed at the amount of valuable material concerning New York which will be in their possession. NO single volume can adequately show the extent of the work, but when a dozen issues have been completed we think our friends will be more than pleased with the result of the investment. Interest in New York is growing with every passing day, and after the War it will be even greater than ever before. The present management of the Manual does not look upon it as a private venture; it is more in the nature of a public enterprise. We sometimes regret the lack of sup port by our Municipal authorities, even in a modified de gree. On the other hand, we enjoy a measure of editorial freedom which must in the end tend to the advantage of the Manual, as it enables us to select such material as commends itself to our judgment with no Obligation from any quarter.
