New York's highly volatile and contentious political life, Patricia U. Bonomi shows, gave rise to a number of interest groups for whose support political leaders had to compete, resulting in new levels of democratic participation. 606 $aHISTORY / United States / Colonial Period (1600-1775)$2bisacsh 607 $aNew York (State)$xHistory$yColonial period, ca. 1600-1775 607 $aNew York (State)$xPolitics and government$yTo 1775 608 $aElectronic books. 615 7$aHISTORY / United States / Colonial Period (1600-1775). 676 $a974.7/02 700 $aBonomi$b Patricia U.$0887645 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910460153103321 996 $aA factious people$92460546 997 $aUNINA
