The online retailer Amazon now allows anyone to index the bestselling items for any geographic area or extension (like .edu, .org, and .com.) Amazon's list shows Culture, Society, and Drugs: The Social Science Approach to Drug Use as the number one book north of the Harlem River. Also popular there are a history of the Bronx accent, a Dominican cookbook, and Jacobs Dozen: A Prophetic Look at the Tribes of Israel.
