Mr. Stewart, who now lives in London and whose earlier books cover locales ranging from Madrid to remote parts of Afghanistan, concluded in his research that "the city as we know it today came of age" during the decade sandwiched between the razzle-dazzle of the Roaring Twenties and the grim rumblings of World War II.
