A People in Revolution: The American Revolution and Political Society in New York, 1760-1790

by Edward Countryman

Overview

“In the richness of his evidence, in the sophistication of his measurements, and in his appreciation for complexity, [Countryman] has written one of the most comprehensive and detailed studies we have yet had of any state during the revolution.” —Gordon Wood, New York Review of Books

As British rule crumbled in colonial America, profound changes occurred in the relationships between those in power and the people they ruled. This study examines the impact political changes in New York State had on the structure of government throughout the emerging nation.
