City of Dreams: The 400-Year Epic History of Immigrant New York

With more than three million foreign-born residents today, this city has been America’s defining port of entry for nearly four centuries. These migrants have brought hundreds of languages and distinct cultures to the city, and from there to the entire country. Tyler Anbinder, author of The Five Points, discusses his new book, City of Dreams, which puts the immigrant experience at the center of the growth and development of New York City. Pulitzer Prize nominated author Suketu Mehta joins Anbinder in conversation.
