After four visits during the 1920s, Paul Morand wrote a profile of the city of New York in 1930. This English translation came out the following year. Theodore Purdy, Jr. wrote about the book: ""There is a good deal in it that is inaccurate, and the spellings of American names are confused as only a French proofreader can confuse them, yet on the whole M. Morand has seen New York well and truly, as well as in the impeccable perspective of modernity which is so characteristic of all his work."" 14 stylish illustrations by Joquin Vaquero.
