Beginning with the start of time itself, Knickerbocker reveals historical anecdotes, both real and imagined featuring social commentary, fresh perspectives on the past, and conversations with powerful historical figures. With humor and intrigue, <em>A Knickerbockers History of New York</em> tells the tale of the discovery of New York, and explores the first Dutch settlements. While examining those origins, Knickerbocker muses about the ethics of colonization and the immoral treatment of Native Americans, with biting and brutal honesty. Still under the Dutch rule, 1600 New York acted as one of the breeding grounds for many American Christmas traditions, some of which are still alive today. Under a comical microscope, <em>A Knickerbockers History of New York</em> explores the effect the early Dutch settlements have on American culture, particularly in New York.</p><p>Originally published in 1809, Washington Irvings <em>A Knickerbockers History of New York</em> earned acclaim for its innovative genre as one of the first American comedic works. With the mix of specific, inside jokes and universal humor, Irvings satire invites laughter from both his original audience and contemporary readers. With prose and wit that has remained fresh and hilarious even two-hundred and eleven years later, Washington Irvings <em>A Knickerbockers History of New York</em> contains a narrative that has earned centuries of influence. While playfully mocking both classic literature and historians, Irving was bold enough to even include a list of people, professions and properties that he intended to make fun of. Though Irving mixes fact with fiction, <em>A Knickerbockers History of New York</em> provides useful insight on the history of Dutch Americans, as well as contributing thoughtful social commentary that finds itself still applicable to modern society.</p><p>Now featuring a stunning new cover design and a modern font, this edition of Washington Irvings <em>A Knickerbockers History of New York</em> is both accessible and entertaining.</p>(*_*)9781513274669_<p>Told from the perspective of a cantankerous man named Deidrick Knickerbocker, <em>A Knickerbockers History of New York</em> depicts a satirical history spanning from the worlds creation to the end of the Dutch dynasty.
