BURNING OF NEW YORK Explores The NY Conspiracy Of 1741

The First Look Series presents Burning of New York on Sunday, February 15 at 3:00 p.m. Like the Salem witch trials, but much more murderous, the New York Conspiracy of 1741 was one of the most extraordinarily revealing events in American Colonial history. Eventually 35 persons were hanged or buried alive and more than 70 were banished from the province of New York.
