Excellent Balance of Detail/Fun, History/Geography

Want to know the Village's history? Want to know about all the odd buildings you walk by every day? Want to read about where Bob Dylan played before he was famous? Where did F. Scott Fitzerald eat & drink(there's no sign on the restaurant, even today)? A nice reference whether you live here, work here, pass through, or plan to visit jsut once.The text is well-written, informative, and readable.The only down-side: it was published in 1992 and is getting a bit dated. The listings, particularly the restaurant list, are particularly vulnerable to the aging process. In the Village, the restaurant list will be outdated by tomorrow...
