An Award-Winning Book

“The distinguishing qualities of The Democratic Republicans of New York are its authority, its perspective, its judicious balance, its penetrating analyses, and its lucid style. Professor Young has had the wisdom to avoid getting bogged down in fruitless controversy, the courage to recognize what is still valid in Becker and Beard, and the resolution to go beyond them in the only way possible—by indefatigable researces in an amazing range of original and secondary sources, over all of which he has established a sure mastery. He has produced a work of enduring scholarship.”
