In the same absorbing style that characterized his bestseller Lost Hollywood (called "inspired" by The New York Times and "delicious" and "irresistible" by Liz Smith), David Wallace shares how New York roared the loudest in the Roaring Twenties.
- When NYC Became Capital of The World
The Twenties in New York City saw alcohol made illegal, the rise of the Mafia, the birth of radio and mass communication, the automobile revolution and the beginnings of gossip as a business. With a bountiful array of anecdotes and inside profiles of the individuals who personified the many aspects of New York-sex, sin, song, work, sports and play-the stars and giants of the Big Apple come alive.
David Wallace, formerly a national correspondent for People, has written for The Los Angeles Times, The Denver Post, Ladies Home Journal and Life. He cofounded the publicity and PR firm Gifford/Wallace which represented the hugely successful rock musical "Hair."
