This book applies the contents of a working economist's tool-kit to
explain, clearly and intuitively, when and why over the course of
four centuries individuals, families, and enterprises decided to
locate in or around the lower Hudson River Valley. Collectively
those millions of decisions have made New York one of the
twenty-first century's few truly global cities. A recurrent
analytic theme of this work is that the ups and downs of New York's
trajectory are best understood in the context of what was happening
elsewhere in the broader Atlantic world. Readers will find that the
Atlantic perspective viewed through an economic lens goes a long
way toward clarifying otherwise quite perplexing historical events
and trends.
