New York City Neighborhoods

'This is the first major publication to integrate New York City archaeological data into a broader context . . . . [A]t once a long overdue reference for the student of New York City history while at the same time a point of departure for broader studies of urban development.' (Valerie DeCarlo, American Antiquity)

'This work is a building block. It raises important questions and proposes a methodology . . . that make sense for the analysis of archeological data and the creation of historical ethnography.' (Barbara J. Little, Science)

'[A]n impressive view of New York’s colonial development oriented toward the interaction between wealth and ethnicity, with insights into urban structure. . . . This book should be of interest to students of cities and urban studies and of New York specifically.' (Stanley South, American Anthropologist)

'[A] welcome addition to the impoverished (quantitatively speaking) or deliciously rich (qualitatively speaking) 1980’s monographs written by historical archaeologists. . . . It is an admirable piece of work that builds on 15 years of experience with urban resources.' (Anne Yentsch, Historical Archaeology)
