Okay so I just checked and the book I am reading has 71 pages dedicated to notes, works cited, and indexes.
That's 16% of the book that is just citing, clarifying and saying where within the book things are
I think he just wanted to break 400 pages and didn't know how else to do it
I know it's an academic work and stuff like that is important, but did you need to tell me the exact pages that Beijing China or Battery Park City in NYC or the Alaskan Way Viaduct in Seattle are mentioned?
It's 270-271 and 337-338 for Beijing, Battery Park City was mentioned in a Footnote on page 249, and the Alaskan Way Viaduct was mentioned on pages 95-96, 308 and 324-26
The book is Walkable City, How Downtown Can Save America One Step At A Time by Jeff Speck
