Queens Through TimePaperback, 21 November 2022

Queens, New York, has a long and storied history. From early Dutch settlements to British colonization to American independence, Queens only become a part of New York City at the end of the nineteenth century. This book chronicles the rapidly changing and growing borough as it shed the last vestiges of its bucolic origins and became the bustling place it is today. Yet despite its growth, there are still traces of the Queens of old scattered throughout. Take a visual journey through time with author and Queens native Richard Panchyk as he reveals striking then and now images of the city's largest borough.
