Walked along the #HudsonRiver 3.5 mi from the #Verrazano Bridge to Owl's Head Park & now that I've read both "The Island at the Center of the World" & "Taking Manhattan" by #RussellShorto, I can picture Henry Hudson & also Richard Nicolls sailing up the river toward #Manhattan #booksky #history #nyc

The phenomenal #RussellShorto ably interviewed by Dutch NYC expert Andrea Mosterman on his new book Taking Manhattan, all about the 1664 hand-off of the town to the British.

Thanks to #CBH and #GANYC for putting together an amazing session for an engaged & sold out local crowd!

Wow! Lucky you. Did you enjoy? After reading "Island at the Center of the Worldโ€ two summers ago, Iโ€™m now 3 chapters into โ€œAmsterdamโ€ and completely hooked! R. Shorto has a way of pulling you into history and making it seem as if you were there! #RussellShorto #Amsterdam
