Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of iconic events that unfolded at the heart of New York back in its early years when it was first being shaped. It also brings to light the ideas and motivations of the city's common people during those formative times. Among the significant events that are the focus of this book is the trial of former New York Governor Jacob Leisler, who was convicted of treason for his efforts during a time when the city was in political turmoil. Also examined is the trial of John Peter Zenger, whose fight for freedom of speech set a precedent for what would later become the foundation of the First Amendment in the United States Constitution. Through detailed accounts of these trials, the author explores the evolving concepts of democracy, justice, and human rights in early New York.
