The History of Kingston, New York: From Its Early Settlement to the Year 1820 is a comprehensive historical account of the city of Kingston, New York, written by Marius Schoonmaker and originally published in 1888. The book covers the period from the early 17th century, when the Dutch first settled in the area, up until the year 1820. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which focuses on a different aspect of Kingston's history. The first chapter provides an overview of the early Dutch settlement and the establishment of Kingston as a trading post. Subsequent chapters cover topics such as the impact of the American Revolution on the city, the growth of industry and commerce, and the development of the city's cultural and social institutions.Throughout the book, Schoonmaker draws on a wide range of primary sources, including diaries, letters, and official records, to provide a detailed and vivid picture of life in Kingston during this period. He also includes numerous illustrations and maps to help readers visualize the city's development over time.Overall, The History of Kingston, New York is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of this important American city, and provides a fascinating glimpse into the early years of European settlement in the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
