It really shouldn't be my job to blow wartime Manhattan's horn.
Joe Howe, the Bluenosers' favourite son, always advised his countryman to brag about their country :
Brag of your country. When I am abroad, I brag of everything
Nova Scotia is, has or can produce and when they beat me at
everything else, I say, 'How high do your tides rise?
Don't let the 9/11 plotters define wartime Manhattan to the world
for you.
Admit The Bomb and wartime eugenic inclinations , but also talk up Henry Dawson and Patty Malone , Dante Colitti and Penicillin.
Take a bow ....
