The New York Intellectuals is written by Hugh Wilford and published by Manchester University Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0719039886 (ISBN 10) and 9780719039881 (ISBN 13).

Reconstructs the history of a group of thinkers and activists including Philip Rahv, Mary McCarthy, Dwight Macdonald, and Lionel Trilling--collectively known as the New York Intellectuals--during the period of their greatest influence, the 1940s and 1950s. While defending the group against charges that they "sold out", the author analyzes the contradictions between their avant-garde principles and the institutional locations they came to occupy.
