    by Lawrence R. Samuel (Author)

    Charts the historical development of Queens from the 1920s to today, focusing on its profound diversity.

    Queens charts the history of residential development of the New York City borough from the 1920s to today. The work focuses on the borough's most remarkable aspect: its profound diversity as a multiethnic, multiracial, and multireligious place. The narrative traces the evolution of Queens from a quasi-suburb of Manhattan for the white middle class into the most diverse county in the United States and, many contend, the most diverse place on the planet. Following this trajectory adds much to our understanding of the borough, the city, the country, and even the world.
