The Great New York Conspiracy

As usual, Peter Hoffer provides his readers with a gracefully written look at a intriquing but little known moment in our nation's past. And, as is true of his other studies, his work on the NY Conspiracy is thought-provoking and placed intelligently in context so that both the small picture and the large picture can be appreciated. Though intended for professional historians and graduate students, lay readers and undergraduates can enjoy--and profit--from this work.
