Item description from seller

Print on Demand. This book provides a detailed insight into the history of the constitution of the state of New York, beginning with the initial call for a convention to draft a new constitution in 1777, moving through the adoption of the constitution that same year, until the various revisions and amendments that followed, up to and including 1846. It includes the full text of the constitution, as adopted in 1777, and amended in 1821 and 1845, alongside relevant acts of the Assembly and Convention proceedings. The author provides the broader historical context informing the need for revision of the constitution, along with the debates and events surrounding the various revisions and their ultimate ratification by the people of New York. An overview of the main themes of the various versions of the constitution, as well as the amendments, is also included, covering topics such as the relationship between the state and federal government, the division of powers, the role of the judiciary, and the rights and privileges of citizens. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book.…
