About this title

Synopsis

On the eve of revolution, a colonial governor grapples with empire, province, and conscience. The Letters and Papers of Cadwallader Colden (Volume IX) gathers additional letters and writings from 1749-1775, forming a rich colonial American letters collection that opens a window onto pre-Revolution New York and mid 1700s British America. These letters crackle with life. As acting governor and long-serving official, Colden stood at the crossroads of colonial administration in America and British imperial politics in the colonies; his surviving correspondence, reports, and reflections are presented here as primary source historical documents in an eighteenth century correspondence volume that captures debates over authority, governance, and policy. For readers of early American intellectual history, the Cadwallader Colden papers offer a rare chance to follow one mind engaging with power, philosophy, and the practical burdens of rule. Scholars will value this edition as a dependable reference for colonial historians and a flexible resource for history students working directly with early American governors letters and other official texts. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today -- a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. More than study material, it is a rewarding read and a distinguished choice for any classic library.
