Book Description
There is always a lot of Press about life in New York City and what it’s like to live and work in the Big Apple. People cannot seem to get enough about the hustle and bustle and the “rat race” that as city-dwellers engulf us almost daily. It is a life that is not always full of glamour and excitement. I believe there is another side that begs to be told. That side is the story that is deeper and more meaningful than the front page tales of glamour and occasional mayhem. It can be the story of a kind next door neighbor, a friend or a co-worker. It can also be the sad tale of someone on a public conveyance who needs help and is always there asking for a hand-out. Someone you always give a helping hand to no matter how many times you vow to ignore. I have lived and worked here for many years and I still enjoy what the city has to offer its residents and its visitors. I believe that the true attraction of this city is not so much its streets, its avenues or its monuments but the stories of its people. Maurice P. Fortune
