Sinopsis

This book provides a historical account of the New Jersey General Assembly's response to various events during the mid-eighteenth century. The book's main focus is on the Assembly's efforts to address issues such as the need for military defense during wartime, the regulation of the militia, and the support of the colonial government. It places the Assembly's actions within the broader context of the political and social climate of the time, particularly in relation to the Seven Years' War and the tensions between the British government and the American colonies. The book explores the Assembly's debates and decisions on matters of taxation, public spending, and the maintenance of order. Through the examination of primary source documents, including Assembly minutes and correspondence, the author sheds light on the complexities of colonial governance and the challenges faced by the Assembly in balancing the interests of the colony with the demands of the British Crown. The insights offered in this book contribute to our understanding of the historical development of New Jersey and the role of representative assemblies in shaping the American colonies' political landscape.
