How to read this book,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Road to Mobocracy: Popular Disorder in New York City, 1763-1834 (Published for the Omohundro Institute of Early American Hist) (Paperback)
This is a very good book on riots. It does not include the riots from "Gangs of New York." If you are going to read this book, read Chapter 10 first. It will give you all the definations of the words the author uses like, magistrate, marshals, watchmen. This will help in knowing what these people are supposed to do in the book. I didn't do this and was wondering throughout the book exactly what these people were supposed to be doing to stop the riots. All the riots get a bit tedious after awhile, but there are some good parts. After you read the book you will sort of have the idea that is all the people in NYC did was riot.
