Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Home Life in Holland Its problems are the Oldest public questions, its works the most ancient monuments in the country. It is the earliest Of the institutions Of the Dutch that something like government among them brought. The powers which are entrusted to it still are those it exercised long before the House of Orange emerged from Obscurity, or the Provinces from Sharing the fate of the Holy Roman Empire. Its history is written in tomes, the study Of which, I confess, does not always bring enlightenment. Yet it is easier to state the facts of this great struggle with water than to see its marks: the facts are common renown; the difficulty is to be persuaded that they are literally true.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Holland The Rhine, that great and most famous river of Western Europe, rushes down from the mountains of Switzerland, flows in a long course through a lovely valley, and, as it approaches its mouth, checks its rapid stream, breaks into many sluggish waterways, and meanders across a Wide flat into the North Sea. This flat has been formed by the great river itself. For many ages the swift stream has brought down masses of soil from its upper course. When the flow of the river is checked, this soil is thrown down, and has helped to build a new land. This new land was first a Wild morass with muddy islands covered by thick forests. In times of furious storm the sea swept far over it, and the land was deeply flooded. But for many centuries man has been at work, building walls and banks to keep the sea out, and the rivers in their proper places. He has drained and enclosed and protected, until this muddy delta has become firm soil and the home of a nation, the Dutch, living in their homeland of Holland.

Book Synopsis Dutch Life in Town and Country (Classic Reprint) by : P. M. Hough
Download or read book Dutch Life in Town and Country (Classic Reprint) written by P. M. Hough and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-04 with total page 346 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Dutch Life in Town and Country There is in human affairs a reason for everything we see, although not always reason in everything. It is the part of the historian to seek in the archives of a nation the reasons for the facts of common experience and observation; it is the part of the philosopher to moralise upon antecedent causes and present results. Neither of these positions is taken up by the author of this little book. He merely, as a rule, gives the picture of Dutch life now to be seen in the Netherlands, and in all things tries to be scrupulously fair to a people renowned for their kindness and courtesy to the stranger in their midst.

Book Synopsis Poor Relations by : Maarten Maartens
Download or read book Poor Relations written by Maarten Maartens and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Poor Relations: Stories of Dutch Peasant Life The whole hamlet effervesced with delicious perturbation. Every one was telling every one else that Jan Hunkum lay murdered in his bed. The Hemel is one of the dirtiest spots in a country where no spot is very dirty. The appearance of the place is against it: some few dozen disorderly hovels lie pitched across a field, their builders having allowed them to fall as they chose. Some, abusing this permission, lurch heavily, looking as if, like many of the people inside them, they had frequently taken a drop too much. Others bend backwards, propped up with the pride that cometh before a fall, and the general crookedness, and the old age that accentuates it, give the tumble-down dwellings a disreputable leer such as many of the indwellers have developed for themselves. Our conceptions of heaven - which is "De Hemel" - must inevitably remain inadequate at the best: perhaps the angels up yonder, in cloudland, cannot properly distinguish the gulf which, in our appreciation, sinks a pool of poverty and wickedness like this little Dutch hamlet beneath a favoured nook of our deteriorated Paradise such as, say, Monte Carlo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Journey Through Old Holland Sat reading for A long time IN old PA pers, books and ships' logs. A friend of mine had dropped in, and we had fallen into a discussion over a certain Dutchman, named Ian Maertensz., mentioned as one of the first inhabitants of the small settlement of New Amsterdam the little colony well known in the xviith century as the alternating and contested possession of two sea-faring nations, and in our time better known as the small beginning from which the large and remarkable metropolis of New - York has grown - whether this Dutchman could have re turned to the land of his forefathers, or whether he had possibly ended his days roaming the seas as merchant and skipper. IX}, For the chronicles state with' certainty the following facts When the English for the first time laid hands on the settlement, Ian Maertensz. At once abandoned both an assured living as well as those possessions he had won by dogged labour, and took ship, preferring a difficult existence in freedom to a peaceful one under foreign rulers. In his youth he had thought that his fortune'was to be found on or across the Sea. The endless rolling sea, where white sails rode in the distance, where mysterious voices spoke and laughed aloud in the wave romping of the thudding, splashing breakers on the Dutch coast the sea had aroused in him the desire to seek adventure across that wonderful waste. Nothing new, indeed, in his countrymen. Had not they always been the sons of the deep? Says not One of the songs of the Beggars of the Sea, the lays of those poor expelled men who valiantly fought for the freedom of our soil: Through the wild waves they went, Like lions through the wood. El}, Has not Holland seen its glory dawn on the seas? Has not the sea brought Holland whatever treasures were discovered and carried home from distant climes, in small ships, amid constant dangers? Have not her sons more than those of any other land understood the sea, and how to find tracks on its great spaces, and how from wood and sail-cloth, with ingenuity and stubborn endeavour, to build up the beautiful works of art which their small Ships were, with their high stems and graceful rigging and sails? Were they not, from their youth, cradled in the lap of the waves, as our great xviith century poet, vondel, once sang? No wonder then that Ian Maertensz. Could not resist the call of the sea. A daring seaman the old chronicles called him. B}, Twilight had for an hour been shrouding all visible outlines in my room in grey shadow, when my friend left v iaiqyy n; 0 T if P f.

Book excerpt: #1 New York Times bestselling author! In Rainbow Rowell's Fangirl, Cath is a Simon Snow fan. Okay, the whole world is a Simon Snow fan, but for Cath, being a fan is her life-and she's really good at it. She and her twin sister, Wren, ensconced themselves in the Simon Snow series when they were just kids; it's what got them through their mother leaving. Reading. Rereading. Hanging out in Simon Snow forums, writing Simon Snow fan fiction, dressing up like the characters for every movie premiere. Cath's sister has mostly grown away from fandom, but Cath can't let go. She doesn't want to. Now that they're going to college, Wren has told Cath she doesn't want to be roommates. Cath is on her own, completely outside of her comfort zone. She's got a surly roommate with a charming, always-around boyfriend, a fiction-writing professor who thinks fan fiction is the end of the civilized world, a handsome classmate who only wants to talk about words . . . And she can't stop worrying about her dad, who's loving and fragile and has never really been alone. For Cath, the question is: Can she do this? Can she make it without Wren holding her hand? Is she ready to start living her own life? And does she even want to move on if it means leaving Simon Snow behind?
