Down and Out in Philadelphia and New York is a contemplative look at two great American cities. Godwin's narrator philosophizes about modern-day issues-poverty, status, crime, education and ethnicity-and gives the reader a close-up view of two very similar, yet very different cities, comparing the best and the worst of its populace and its flavor. How does the Philadelphia Art Museum compare with the Metropolitan Museum of Art? How do Philly soft pretzels size up to New York's hotdogs?

Down and Out in Philadelphia and New York is a contemplative look at two great American cities. Godwin's narrator philosophizes about modern-day issues-poverty, status, crime, education and ethnicity-and gives the reader a close-up view of two very similar, yet very different cities, comparing the best and the worst of its populace and its flavor. How does the Philadelphia Art Museum compare with the Metropolitan Museum of Art? How do Philly soft pretzels size up to New York's hotdogs? What does New York's Central Park have in common with Philadelphia's Fairmont Park? Godwin's comparisons tout the highs and lows in each within a sociological context. Discover the nuances between the middle-class and upper-class in these two major cities, the future of pharmaceuticals, how to mix with the movers and shakers, keep from getting mugged and how to avoid respiratory disease in these pollution-heavy environments. With big-city slang and intuitive observation, Godwin leaves it up to the reader to render his or her own opinion-do we really live in a melting pot or has America reached its crescendo? Author Bio: Garret Thomas Godwin is a full time writer. Mr. Godwin is currently writing on his second novel and lives in Mechanicsville, Pennsylvania.
