This second edition digs more deeply into the question of what the village of Yorkville was and who its people were. Who were its leaders? Why did it start? And also the issue of slavery in our city and the major role it played in its development, including the area that eventually became Yorkville and the often neglected role of the area during the revolutionary war, except, perhaps, to scholars. The introduction to this edition is written by two Yorkville alumni, John and Joseph Gindele, PhDs, DITs. They are the coauthors of Yorkville Twins, an engrossing book of the life and times of two twin brothers growing up in Yorkville in the 1940s and 50s. For anyone interested in the history of New York City, this book makes the ongoing connection between the history of the city as a whole and its continuing impact on the area that would become Yorkville. In the process, in sites other areas of the city as well, including Lenox Hill, Harlem, Hellgate Seneca, and others. It is a must-read for any historian interested in the city of New York.
