Long Island Book

This was a gift to some friends who moved to Long Island and are originally from Sweden and France. They told us they liked this book as a reference to there new home.

A thorough examination.

This was perhaps even more informative than I expected. The photos and additional drawings were perfect and beautiful. I enjoyed the glimpses into what sets Long Island apart from other parts of New York City as far as culture and identity. Makes me want to visit again and again. I had bought this book for research purposes on its Native American past and wasn't disappointed to find a wealth of other information, interesting facts, and ideas for places to experience.
