Christopher Benfey, New York Review of BooksThis is cultural history at its best. Journal of American CultureElizabeth L. Bradley sorts, catalogues and deciphers the shifting Knickerbocker currents in a metropolis constantly reinventing itself. She does the sturdy Dutchman proud in a scholarly and polished rendition. StarLedgerBradley creates an engaging account of the city through the fictional Knickerbocker, who was a steady presence over two centuries of wrenching urban transformation, from the postcolonial to the postmodern.

She provided the historical context necessary to illustrate the ways the Knickerbocker brand was invoked and provides deft analysis of the cultural meanings it accrued. Bookforum
