This title presents the classic satirical history of New York from one of America's first internationally bestselling authors. One of the first important works of American comic literature, this satirical history of New York was originally published to both critical and popular acclaim in 1809. Spanning the creation of the world to the end of the 'Dutch Dynasty', this humorous history examines the discovery of New York, the first settlements of the Dutch, the reign of Peter Stuyvesant, the gallant achievements of Peter the Headstrong, and many other real and imagined moments in the history of this iconic American city. Marking the 200th anniversary of its original publication, "A Knickerbocker's History of New York" offers an entertaining examination of New York society, history, and politics that is every bit as sailent, biting, and humorous now as when it was first written.
