This book is a historical account of the earliest colonial days of New York through the records of the Court of Burgomasters and Schepens. It covers the period from 1653 to 1674, chronicling the city's growth and how governance informed the formation of neighborhoods and communities. The minutiae of everyday life, such as determining taxes and licenses, debating the sale of liquor, and determining punishments for offenders of public laws, provides a rich understanding of New Amsterdam's early years.
