Description
A Century in the Comptroller's Office, State of New York 1797 to 1897 is a comprehensive historical account chronicling the evolution, challenges, and achievements of the New York State Comptroller’s Office over its first hundred years. Authored by James A. Roberts, who served as Comptroller at the time of publication, the book offers a detailed narrative that intertwines the development of the office with the broader financial, political, and social history of New York State. Drawing from official records, personal recollections, and contemporary accounts, Roberts traces the origins of the office from its establishment in 1797, highlighting the early struggles to create a transparent and accountable system for managing the state’s finances. The book delves into the lives and careers of the men who held the office, providing biographical sketches and anecdotes that illuminate their contributions and the challenges they faced. It explores the evolution of fiscal policy, the management of public debt, the oversight of state expenditures, and the implementation of reforms designed to combat corruption and inefficiency. The narrative also examines the impact of major historical events—such as wars, economic crises, and political upheavals—on the office’s operations and responsibilities. Richly illustrated with portraits, facsimiles of documents, and statistical tables, A Century in the Comptroller's Office serves as both a tribute to public service and a valuable resource for historians, policymakers, and anyone interested in the inner workings of state government. Through its meticulous research and engaging storytelling, the book not only documents the growth of a vital state institution but also reflects the broader story of New York’s transformation from a fledgling state to a leader in American governance and finance.
