Notes: "For eighty years, Radio Clinic operated on 98th and Broadway on Manhattan's Upper West Side.  'We are staying' chronicles the store's rise, struggles, and fall, and the family that owned it across those decades.  Radio Clinic survived the 1977 blackout and looting but could not survive the rising rents.  It is an immigrant story, a grandfather-father-daughter story, a story of a unique character a family business brings to a neighborhood, and a reflection on what has been lost as stores like these disappear"--Back cover.
