SUMMARY:New York and the Founding of America with the New York Historical
DESCRIPTION:Out of the ashes of the British occupation and Evacuation Day i
 n November 1783 at the American Revolution’s end\, New York emerged as t
 he first capital of the United States. How did a body of elected represent
 atives establish a form of government that had never existed previously? D
 efying global expectations\, and despite the fact that the founders were n
 ot assured of its success\, the government flourished. This virtual presen
 tation covers an era from the signing of the Declaration of Independence t
 o the opening of the Erie Canal\, providing insight and history as to how 
 New York developed from a British colony to the largest and wealthiest Ame
 rican city.\n\nThis program takes place on Zoom and registration is requir
