In Leisler's Times: An Historical Story Of Knickerbocker New York (1886) is a historical novel written by Elbridge Streeter Brooks. The book is set in late 17th century New York, during the time of the Leisler Rebellion. The story follows the lives of several characters, including Jacob Leisler, a German-American merchant who led the rebellion, and his daughter Mary. The novel also explores the social and political climate of New York during this time, including the tension between the Dutch and English settlers and the struggles of the working class. Through vivid descriptions and engaging storytelling, Brooks brings to life the rich history of Knickerbocker New York and the events that shaped it.
