"Mark Vanhoenacker has crafted an eloquent personal tribute to [cities] ... This is not a scholarly book on cities, yet Mr. Vanhoenacker does enjoy digging into the literature on the cities he loves ... His own observations, as well as his research on cities, are always highly particular ...

He writes as someone who, from a very early age—looking at a metal globe—wanted to explore the world, to get to know it all, to touch it, so to speak, everywhere. I share that urge. Many of us still do. And for those of us who do, Imagine a City will hold us in a warm, welcome embrace."
