Summary: "A Memoir of Sir Edmund Andros, Knt." by William Henry Whitmore is a historical account written in the late 19th century. As a comprehensive biography, the book delves into the life and contributions of Sir Edmund Andros, who served as a governor in several American colonies, including New York and New England, during a time of political upheaval and colonial expansion. The memoir likely examines Andros’s role in shaping the governance of these territories as well as the controversies he faced during his tenure. The memoir provides an extensive exploration of Andros's background, his military service, and his political career. It highlights his appointment as Governor of New York and later of New England, where he faced significant resistance during his authoritarian rule that culminated in the revolt against him in 1689. Whitmore details Andros's policies, relationships with Native American tribes, and the context of his governorship during the restoration of the Stuart monarchy. Through a blend of anecdotal recollections and historical records, the book seeks to present a balanced perspective on Andros, often defending him against accusations of tyranny and emphasizing his administrative contributions while also acknowledging the complex legacy he left behind.
