About the Book

The acclaimed photographer who celebrated the beauty of Central Park in his last book now takes his camera to the streets of Manhattan. In more than 200 color and black and white photographs, Jim Freund moves uptown and down to catch the dazzling contrasts that make New York so unique. From sidewalk artists to skyscrapers, from the lights and shadows across historic Trinity Church to the passing parades in Times Square, Freund brings the streets to life - in a dazzling collection of fresh, provocative images of people and places. Here are breathtaking cityscapes taken from the top of some of the world's tallest buildings and candid, intimate shots of New York's people in all their extraordinary diversity. Here are the colors, patterns, and pulse of the city - and some brandnew ways of looking at it all. Plus: there's clear, expert advice for even novice photographers on how to achieve the impact and artistry that make Jim Freund's photographs so memorable. For natives and visitors alike, Slices of the Big Apple is an unforgettable album of memories that could only happen in New York.

About the Author :
James Freund is a lawyer by profession and a lifelong photographer of the city he's always called home. His previous book was Central Park: A Photographic Excursion (Fordham University Press).

Review :
"This is James Freund's love letter to New York. Like all artists, he charts the majesty of its architecture in contrast with the ironies and contradictions in the life that swarms and collides in its streets. The Big Apple is all muscle, difficult and exciting. And celebrating it poetry is no mean task. Freund has nailed the city I love- and pretend to know." -- -Hal Prince "No one can capture the energy of the Big Apple on film quite the way a native New Yorker can...This book contains a wonderful collection of his [James Freund's] images in both black and white and color that artfully express the beauty and soul of daily life in New York City. -Peterson's Photographic Magazine "Jim Freund is a superb photographer but he is also a philosopher and a humorist. In this volume-so much more than a picture book-his camera captures the images of the people of Manhattan; his commentaries explore their hearts and souls." -- -Walter Cronkite "James Freund takes us on an absorbing photographic tour of the streets of New York. The photos and texts in Slices of the Big Apple are terrific, and the book is well worth your time." -- -Ed Koch
