The previously bibliography of New York in the American Revolution had appeared 48 years previously during the sesquicentennial celebration of the Revolution. It was short, only eighteen pages long and contained only a few more than two hundred entries. More was known at the time of this bibliography than had been known and understood nearly a half-century earlier. It was felt it was time to bring the bibliography up to date in an annotated manner. This bibliography is not exhaustive, but reflects a genuine effort to provide a comprehensive cross section of the literature ranging from scholarly and technical to popular. A brief bibliography of fiction has been added. The 1,089 entries are numbered consecutively throughout the book. Index references are to these entry numbers, not to page numbers. Authors, editors, translators, compilers, and key title words are indexed. Condition: Good.
