"New York: Confidential!" by Jack Lait and Lee Mortimer offers a candid and often shocking glimpse into the hidden underbelly of mid-20th century New York City, with a particular focus on Harlem. This meticulously prepared republication explores the city's vibrant yet complex urban life, unflinchingly exposing corruption and tackling pressing social issues of the time. A fascinating and controversial snapshot of a bygone era, the book delves into aspects of New York rarely seen, venturing beyond the glittering facade to reveal the stark realities of its neighborhoods. More than just a travelogue, it provides a sociological study of urban life and a true crime exploration of the city's shadows. Readers interested in the history of New York City, the realities of urban life, and the exploration of social issues will find this a compelling and enduring read.
