In this New York Times bestseller the author recalls how New York City was the land of freedom, glamour, and, above all, style to him.

The New York Times bestseller [An] obscenely enjoyable romp. --The New York Times Book Review The untold story of a New York City legend\'s education in creativity and style For Bill Cunningham, New York City was the land of freedom, glamour, and, above all, style.
