Query: Great book on NY City in the late 1800's and eary 1900's.

This is a book, from the writer of The Gangs of New York, without any real structure, but a great read nevertheless. It's a compilation of stories about crooks, murderers, disasters, riots, and scandals. Some real doozies, and some hard to believe, like the Sawing Off of Manhattan Island.Highly recommended.
