Says Reverend Jen about her book
Reverend Jen's Really Cool Neighborhood, it's "a travel guide to the Lower East Side. It was a useful book until about three years ago when
all of the cool places described in the book got bulldozed to make way for housing for the rich and overpriced bars for yuppies. But it's still interesting as an historical document." [
