Emporia And New York (1906)

By William Allen White

Book Overview

Emporia and New York is a book written by William Allen White and published in 1906. The book is a collection of essays and articles that White wrote about his experiences living in both Emporia, Kansas and New York City. White was a journalist and editor, and his writing in this book reflects his observations on the differences between small-town life in the Midwest and the fast-paced, cosmopolitan lifestyle of New York City. The book is divided into two parts, with the first half focusing on Emporia and the second half on New York. In the Emporia section, White writes about the people and places that make up the town, including its history, politics, and culture. He also reflects on his own experiences growing up in Emporia and the impact the town had on his life. In the New York section, White writes about the city's bustling streets, diverse neighborhoods, and iconic landmarks. He also shares his thoughts on the city's politics, media, and social issues. Overall, Emporia and New York is a fascinating look at two very different places and the ways in which they shaped the author's worldview. It is a valuable resource for anyone interested in American history, journalism, or urban studies.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
