"A History of the City of Brooklyn and Kings County" is a comprehensive account of the New York City's most populous borough from the time of the discovery of America until the late 19th century. Named after the Dutch village of Breukelen, Brooklyn was an independent incorporated city, and previously an authorized village and town within the provisions of the New York State Constitution, until 1898, when, after a long political campaign and public relations battle during the 1890s, according to the new Municipal Charter of "Greater New York", Brooklyn was consolidated with the other cities, boroughs, and counties to form the modern City of New York. The borough continued, however, to maintain a distinct culture.

Excerpt: ... sylvania, but was hastily recalled to this city, by reason of the breaking out of the riot in New York, and were kept on duty in Brooklyn for a month. In 1868, Col. Woodward resigned and was succeeded by Gen. James Jourdan, and he in 1869 by Thos. S. Dakin, who afterwards became brigadier general and Lt. Col. Fred. A. Mason was elected colonel in his place. The regiment now numbers about five hundred men, in a fine state of discipline. The Fourteenth Regiment (Brooklyn Chasseurs), was organized in 1846. and had for its first colonel, Philip 8. Crooke, of Flatbush, Long Island, who was succeeded in January, 1852, by Jesse C. Smith, and he by Alfred M. Wood.
