| |  | | | In Brief
What Alexander Hamilton—author of the Federalist papers and founder of The New York Post>—would have made of the gossipy tabloid of this century, no one can say. The Post uses the occasion of the 200th anniversary of its illustrious founding to fete itself with a decade-by-decade recapping of New York news, crime, politics, scandal, and sports highlights. The editors even managed to get in four pages documenting the events of Sept. 11, 2001. With many b&w page reproductions, headlines, vintage ads, and photographs.

| | | | From The Publisher
Since 1801, the New York Post has been covering New York City with the kind of wit, panache, and "in your face" style that readers have come to expect. Packed with photos, unforgettable headlines, historic news events, spectacular sports stories, infamous scandals, scintillating gossip, political cartoons, Broadway and film reviews, and more, the book is as energetic and intriguing as New York itself.
As the oldest continuously published daily paper in the United States, the Post has seen it all and covered it all. Check out the Post's role in creating Central Park and read the famous obituary of Post founder Alexander Hamilton—killed in a duel with Aaron Burr. Vintage ads, anti-slavery editorials, notorious crimes including the Son of Sammurders, the unforgettable blackout, John Lennon's assassination, and the Wall Street crash of 1987.
