Customer Reviews

The real NY Tour Guide!

Ive been to NY many many times, and LOVE the thought of what really happened there over the years. The Pyramid Club is one ive partied at, little did i know it was the club Michael Stewart left right before getting beat by NYPD and starting one of the biggest civil rights cases in it's history! This book used is most likely very affordable, so GET IT...YOU'LL LOVE IT!

Fascinating and funny!

I'm reading this book in one sitting and I'm almost at the end. I just can't put it down. It's honest, brutal but also very humorous! Definitely recommended!!
