This volume looks at the life of Edward Hyde, Viscount Cornbury, royal governor of New York and New Jersey from 1702 and 1708, whose range of alleged transgressions ranged from raiding the public treasury to scandalizing his subjects.
For more than two centuries, Edward Hyde, Viscount Cornbury - royal governer of New York and New Jersey from 1702 to 1708 - has been a despised figure whose alleged transgressions ranged from looting the colonial treasury to public cross-dressing in New York City. Seeking to strip away the many layers of ""the Cornbury myth"", Patricia Bonomi offers a challenging reassessment of this intriguing figure, royal government, and of the rough and tumble political culture of the first British Empire.
