One of four extraordinary graphic novels celebrating the Big Apple, from the master of American comics art. A story filled with ghosts, and a testament to our greatest human qualities -- a deeply moving chronicle of a city building and the people who inhabited it. Born in New York in 1917, Will Eisner was the author of the legendary comic strip The Spirit. His fifteen graphic novels; his posthumous history, The Plot; and the newest compilation Life, in Pictures, form the Will Eisner Library. The comic industry\'s top annual awards, The Eisners, are named in his honor.
