Yes, he is. I really enjoyed "New York".....
I was getting a history refresher course without even realizing it....
Makes one appreciate all the people that came before us...........
If you recall the part in "New York" where the father takes his young son to see Niagra Falls............?
I thought of that part of the book when Nik Wallenda was walking across........this past June.......
It's a magnificent sight, no matter which era one happens to see it.........
I also learned a lot of the Dutch history......New Netherlands, etc.
