Description
The thrilling narrative of how New York came to
be, by the author of the beloved classic
The Island at the Center of the World.In 1664,
England decided to invade the Dutch-controlled cit
y of New Amsterdam on Manhattan Island. Charles
II and his brother, the Duke of York, had dreams
of empire, and their archrivals, the Dutch, were
in the way. But Richard Nicolls, who led the
English flotilla bent on destruction, changed his
strategy once he began parleying with Peter
Stuyvesant, the Dutch leader on
Manhattan.Bristling with vibrant characters,
Taking Manhattan reveals the founding of New York
to be an invention the result not of an English
military takeover but of clever negotiations that
led to a fusion of the multiethnic capitalistic
society the Dutch had pioneered to the power of
the rising English empire. But the birth of what
might be termed the first modern city is also a
story of the brutal dispossession of Native
Americans and of the roots of American slavery.
Taking Manhattan shows how the paradox of New
York8217sorigins8213bondless opportunity
coupled with subjugation and displacement8213rel
ect America8217spromise and failure to
this day. Russell Shorto, whose work has been
described as 8220asonishing8221(New York
Times) and 8220reelatory8221(New York
magazine), has once again mined newly translated
sources to offer a vibrant tale and a fresh and
trenchant argument about American beginnings. 29
