Off the Beaten (Subway) Track: New York City's Best Unusual Attractions

While it may seem that every possible topic about New York Citys attractions has been written about Off the Beaten (Subway) Track is the first book to focus on the hundreds of off-the-beaten-path destinations in the city. Some are small museums others are historic places long forgotten some are stores that sell only odd things and some are distinguished for their claim to fame as the worlds largest/smallest whatever. All of them are notable for the passion with which their proprietors and curators care for them and all can be visited via the subway system as the author directs readers to which of the citys 486 subway stations will get them closest.
