One significant yet challenging element of studying New York State
is the centrality of its history to the broader sweep of American
life. This prominence leaves many episodes in New York's past
well-known and intensely studied. However, as the articles in the
Winter 2022-2023 issue of New York History (103.2) reminds us,
innovative methodologies and new documentary evidence ceaselessly
open opportunities for fresh insights into the Empire State's rich
past—from the social history of New Netherland to
mid-twentieth-century design.

The Revolution of '28 explores the career of New York governor and
1928 Democratic presidential nominee Alfred E. Smith. Robert Chiles
peers into Smith's work and uncovers a distinctive strain of
American progressivism that resonated among urban, ethnic,
working-class Americans in the early twentieth century. The book
charts the rise of that idiomatic progressivism during Smith's
early years as a state legislator through his time as governor of
the Empire State in the 1920s, before proceeding to a revisionist
narrative of the 1928 presidential campaign, exploring the ways in
which Smith's gubernatorial progressivism was presented to a
national audience. As Chiles points out, new-stock voters responded
enthusiastically to Smith's candidacy on both economic and cultural
levels. Chiles offers a historical argument that describes the
impact of this coalition on the new liberal formation that was to
come with Franklin Delano Roosevelt's New Deal, demonstrating the
broad practical consequences of Smith's political career. In
particular, Chiles notes how Smith's progressive agenda became
Democratic partisan dogma and a rallying point for policy formation
and electoral success at the state and national levels. Chiles sets
the record straight in The Revolution of '28 by paying close
attention to how Smith identified and activated his emergent
coalition and put it to use in his campaign of 1928, before quickly
losing control over it after his failed presidential bid.
