The History of New Jersey: From Its Discovery by Europeans to the Adoption of the Federal Constitution is a comprehensive historical account of the state of New Jersey in the United States. Written by Thomas Francis Gordon and first published in 1834, the book covers the period of New Jersey's history from the arrival of European explorers in the 16th century to the adoption of the U.S. Constitution in 1787.The book begins with an overview of the early exploration and settlement of the region by the Dutch, Swedes, and English. It then delves into the political, economic, and social developments of the colonial period, including the role of New Jersey in the American Revolution.Gordon provides detailed accounts of the state's major historical events, including the Battle of Trenton, the founding of Princeton University, and the development of the state's industrial economy. He also explores the role of slavery in New Jersey and the state's involvement in the Underground Railroad.The book concludes with an analysis of the state's role in the formation of the United States, including the debates over the ratification of the Constitution and the state's contributions to the early federal government.Overall, The History of New Jersey is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the state and its role in the broader context of American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
