Starting with the American Indian settlements and the early days when the southern-most tip of Manhattan held little more than a bleak outpost of Dutch fur traders, this title tracks the economic development and journeys north, from the Village's beginnings as a refuge from dreaded summer fevers to the Dominican enclave of Washington Heights.
