Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Function of State Historian of New York
The State of New York has been generous in appropriations to aid the cause of history, but has not always been dealt with fairly, in the results returned by the recipients of her generosity, or by those who have been entrusted with the publication of her archives.
