Knickerbocker's history of New York : Knickerbocker miscellanies

Today, author Washington Irving is best remembered for the iconic tales ""The Legend of Sleepy Hollow"" and ""Rip Van Winkle."" However, Irving also produced a number of well-regarded works of history and biography. This brilliant volume combines fact and fiction, offering a satirical -- and often imagined -- history of New York from the perspective of make-believe Dutch historian Diedrich Knickerbocker.
