Entry/Object ID

Description
This is the first publication of the Bicentennial Commission to focus on the constitutional birthday of New York State. It also contains the first handy reprinting of the 1777 constitution in two hundred years. The Commission hopes that this booklet will serve not only as a timely appreciation of a great Revolutionary achievement, but also as an aid in the review of those perennial questions of government that each generation must answer for itself.
