About This Item
Norton, 2017. Paperback. Very Good. Unmarked text. Black-and-white images. Notes. Bibliography. Index. 384p. Measures 5.5x8 inches. When John Peter Zenger (1697-1746) printed The New York Weekly Journal, a publication harshly critical of the royal governor of New New York, William S. Cosby, Cosby accused him of libel. During a one-day trial in 1735, Zenger was defended by Alexander Hamilton and acquitted. His case became the symbol for freedom of the press.
