Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Holland as Seen by an American "I am told, sir, that you are going to travel, and that you begin by Holland," wrote Lord Chesterfield, in the first of his charming "Letters to His Son." He evidently approved of his son's intention to enter the Continent of Europe through this natural gateway, and succeeding generations have placed their stamp of approval upon this beginning for the "Grand Tour" by gladly following it. For purely practical reasons, Holland is the ideal starting point for a thorough visit of Europe; it is almost the very centre of gravity of the Continent, its railroads reach out in all directions to carry the tourist into adjacent or far-away lands, and the natural desire to see again its many charms can be gratified by the necessary return for embarcation on the home-bound steamer. In thinking of such a trip, ghosts of the long ago come unbidden before the mind of the traveler. Flitting by he sees young Oliver Goldsmith, knowing nothing of Dutch, but bent on teaching the Dutch English, returning from his fruitless efforts penniless, with a flute as his capital and but little more as his baggage. Then comes Gibbon, as yet a youth, back from his tour, the "Fall and Decline" unthought of, hurrying, as he says with regret, through Holland - that "monument of freedom and industry."

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A New Holland-America Line: The Queen Wilhelmina Lectureship for Dutch Literature and History in the United States of America On the other hand there has been no lack of interest for what was going on in America; for what might be seen and heard yonder. This 1nterest oscillated in course of time, and, to a certain extent, literature reﬂects this oscillation. From the poetry of the new-holland colonist, Jacob Steen dam, we must conclude that the inclination of Dutchmen at home to go out to new-amsterdam did not increase. Neither his Lof van nieuw-holland (praise of new-hol land) nor his prickei-vaersen (stimulating Songs), meant to recommend van Plockhoy's colonisation scheme, seem to have had much effect. When in 1 664 the English seize upon our settlement, America, for the present, disap pears from our ken. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

In France it is called Les pays-bas; in Germany, die Niederlanden, each being the exact equivalent of a term used in England, and sometimes met with among us, The Low Countries. In this latter term we have at once a comprehensive and fitting name, and also the exact translation of the word Netherlands.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Family of Best, in America of Holland Descent: With Copious Biographical Notes, 1700-1901 The early records of the Dutch and Lutheran churches in New York State, and especially of the churches about the Hudson River, from New York to Albany, were translated for the Holland Society of New York City a few years ago. These records, now in the Archives of the Society, are not available, ordinarily, to non-members. For the purpose of solving some of the many difficulties which confronted me in compiling the Van Deusen Genealogy, upon which I was then (1900) engaged, I made, in connection therewith, an exhaustive search of the records of the following churches, for the furtherance of this compilation, the Marriage and Baptismal records, and the Minutes of the Consistory, from 1683, in each church, except as otherwise stated: Albany (Dutch), to 1760; Claverack (Dutch), to 1787; Churchtown (Lutheran), to 1820; Johnstown (Dutch), to 1780; Kinderhook (Dutch), to 1784; Kingston (Dutch), from 1639 to 1801; Schenectady (Dutch), from 1680 to 1901; Ghent (Dutch and Lutheran), from beginning to 1901. In addition to the church records hundred of volumes of historical, biographical, and miscellaneous publications have been minutely examined, some of which are very scarce and exceedingly difficult to consult, except in a few private libraries, for genealogical notes and sketches and information relating to the founders of the Best family. It may be needless to say that the material has taken years to collect, caused much fatigue of travel, and necessitated voluminous correspondence. The author of these pages has endeavored to set forth not only the essential data of genealogical research but also such material as will illuminate the domestic and social life of an interesting period.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Thirty-Seven Years of Holland-American Relations: 1803 to 1840 Of more importance to our national history than the inef fectual attempts at colonization was the series of relations commercial, financial and political - established during the Revolutionary period. Relations with Holland were re opened through the operation of the same factor which had originally brought the Dutch in-contact with the American continent. Hope of gain, and the desire to injure their trade rivals, the English, induced the Dutch to carry on an illicit trade with the American colonies during the war, and this in turn paved the way for the commercial treaty of 1782, under which a ﬂourishing trade soon sprang up. Holland also added to our prestige abroad by her recognition of American independence, and she followed up this step by sending an accredited minister as early as 1783 - an honor which the United States did not return until 1790. The loans which the Dutch offered to the national government at the time of our greatest financial distress were another mark of esteem and confidence, which cemented the bonds of friendship be tween the two countries. And for more than a century our relations with Holland have in the main been character ized by the same friendly spirit which is noticeable in the early years of our national existence.
