Coming Spring 2026

From author and longtime guide Robert Westfield comes a few dozen of his favorite New York stories now drafted for the page and compiled for the first time.

 

Find out…

​  

…why the United Nations felt the need to hide an elephant in a corner and surround it with shrubbery…

 

…how a pair of shiny boots saved West Point from Benedict Arnold…

 

…who in the world would play a game of Rock, Paper, Scissors worth twenty million dollars...

 

…how a midtown office building punished an employee for taking a smoke break...

 

…and how a man carried off a multi-million-dollar heist with only dental floss and his own saliva.
