In this study of Dutch and English New York, she demonstrates that racial domination was a key foundation of society and culture in the seaport community and examines the interrelationship of racial tensions and breakdowns in colonial governance Bibliography Includes bibliographical references (pages 293-320) and index Notes Master and use copy.
