Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author aptly characterizes this work as a “series of itineraries" by which the reader is made familiar with much of the history of Manhattan Island by being led to the very spots associated with important historical events. But this book is much more. It is surprising and refreshing to read a defense of the Five Points from the pen of so intelligent a witness. We who are deeply interested in New York history thank the author for the facts which he has collected. There is a unique arrangement of the interesting, instructive, and inspiring matter which makes it a literary work of a high order. And: the book has a distinct purpose — the interesting of the people in the history and historic localities of the city and the awakening in them of civic pride and affection.

This book was released on 2018-02-07 with total page 506 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The American Metropolis, From Knickerbocker Days to the Present Time, Vol. 1 of 3: New York City Life in All Its Various Phases But not only will the objects proposed by the present volumes commend themselves to every intel ligent friend of the City, but the scheme of recital which the Author has adopted is itself a marked feature of the work. It will arrest the attention of his adult readers, and will be particularly grate ful to the tastes and instincts of the young peo ple, and.it is upon them, primarily, that we have to base our hopes for the future. Youths are not fond of disquisitions, but they like to be shown things, which is exactly what Mr. Moss does in these pages. An event taken apart from its local connections is almost as uninteresting a thing as a soul would be with no body for it to be at home in. The author of The American Metropolis not only describes What has occurred in the history of our City, but knits those events to the particular spot where they have transpired, thus clothing them with the garments of reality and putting them into local relation with the streets that we are to-day walking. His idea is a clever one, and can hardly fail of catching the attention and holding the in terest of the reading public, younger and older.

Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1897 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER FOUR HEROIC HISTORY: THE OLD CITY HALL -- WALL STREET AND BROAD STREET The old Fort, the Old City Hall, and the Common were pivotal points on which turned the destinies of the colony and perhaps of the nation. The Fort was the center of European ideas and monarchial control, the Common was the center of popular agitation and power, the Old City Hall was the center where the conflicting forces met, and where the rights of the people were first put into definite and organized operation. At so important a place as the site of the Old City Hall, we must stop to gather up the recollections of important events that preceded Washington's inauguration. Let us consider, first: The Trial of Governor Jacob Leisler, and his Conviction and Condemnation for Vindicating the Rights of the People and Accepting Authority from them in a Troublous Time. The history of old New York is remarkable for the numerous and important occasions when the common people, as distinguished from the lauded and aristocratic parties, moved with a common impulse, with directness, and with more or less wisdom, to undertake the defense of popular rights, and to protect the City and its citizens from the invasion of enemies. Although the merchants frequently demonstrated their patriotism and their willingness to sacrifice their peculiar interests for the general good, they were (and still are) a conservative class; the landed class also was afraid of the governing powers, which could do much to injure them in their possessions; but the Common People, led by the Sons of Liberty--few of whom were men of large means, or of large mercantile or landed interests--held our City in the front rank of the communities that stood for freedom, and led the way to independent...
