Publisher's Synopsis

The culture of thriftiness runs deep in New Yorkers. The immigrants of the Lower East Side knew about hand-me-downs, mending and making-do, pushcarts and the rag-and-bone pickers; in 1921 the actress Fanny Brice sang about 'Secondhand Rose' in the Ziegfeld Follies. Covering Manhattan plus Williamsburg and downtown Brooklyn, this book provides an insider's guide to the best shops and markets for almost anything you would want to buy.
