Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Four Chapters of Paterson History: I, the War for Independence, II, the Early White Settlers, III, Struggle for Industrial Supremacy, IV, Municipal Administration
The people of New Jersey took an active part in the quarrel between this country and Great Britain over the question of taxation. They were willing contributors, both in men and money, to the wars waged by England against the French, the Indians and other enemies in this country, but they wanted to have something to say about how the money was to be collected for the benefit of the mother country. The subject was one that afforded numerous dis eussions in the assembly and other lawmaking bodies.
