The Monocle Travel Guide Series cuts through the hype and offers you real experiences, which - as this is New York - aren’t hard to come by. Written in an informed but informal manner, each book has 148 pages printed on great paper stock with a hard cover.

The Monocle Travel Guide series reveals our favourite places in each city we cover, from the ideal route for an early-morning run and the best spots for independent retail to detailed design and architecture pages and neighbourhood walks to get you away from the crowds. And taking in everything from established city icons to hard-to-find new favourites, we’ll also advise you on where to eat, drink and sleep.

Designed to be compact and collectable, The Monocle Travel Guide Series go beyond the traditional tourist beats to make sure visitors get the best out of a city - no matter how short their stay.
