Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of Holland The story which is contained in the following pages is, Of necessity, brief, for I cannot go beyond the limits of the series. But it need not be given in great detail. It is possible by a Short narrative to recount the prin cipal facts in the greatest and most important of all European wars, that in which the seven provinces Of Holland secured their independence against the monarch who was supposed to possess the mightiest powers Of the age. Holland was won by its people acre by acre, field by field, against the best European troops Of the time, the. Most practised generals, and what seemed to be boundless resources. The details of the struggle are dry and tedious. The interest in the story lies in the spirit and resolution of the Hol landers, in the tenacity with which they clung to their purposes, in the entire success which attended their efforts, and the great results which followed from the victory which they won, after a war of unparalleled duration. The Spanish king, their foe, represented the two principles Of sixteenth-century despotism, viii preface.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of Holland The series is intended for the use of all persons anxious to understand the nature of existing political conditions. The roots of the present lie deep in the past and the real significance of contemporary events cannot be grasped unless the historical causes which have led to them are known. The plan adopted makes it possible to treat the history of the last four centuries in considerable detail, and to embody the most important results of modern research. It is hoped therefore that the series will be useful not only to beginners but to students who have already acquired some general knowledge of European History. For those who wish to carry their studies further, the bibliography appended to each volume will act as a guide to original sources of information and works of a more special character.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Young People's History of Holland Holland had a great part in the making of the civilization of Europe. By a very unusual training amid the elements of nature, the Dutch were educated to take a noble part in bringing about the modern world of ideas and forces. To win first their own land from the waters, to make it habitable, and then to gain the dominion of the seas, were notable triumphs of mind over matter. To lead in intellectual liberty and freedom in religion, in the enlargement of the bounds of human knowledge, and in the union and reconciliation of the Orient and the Occident, were surely great things to be done by a country so small in area and a people so few in numbers. In this outline of Dutch history for young people, I have laid emphasis upon things visible and tangible and upon persons and events rather than upon theories and tendencies.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Walter Pieterse a Story of Holland In this important position he used his inﬂuence to better the condition of the natives; but, to his sor row, he soon found that he did not have the support of his superiors. What he conceived to be right clashed with the line of conduct he was expected to follow. In a rash moment of righteous indig nation he handed in his resignation; and it was accepted. This hasty step put an end to a brilliant political career and entailed upon Dekker years of disappoint ment and hardship. Seeing that he was pursuing the wrong method to help either the javanese, or him self, he immediately tried to get reinstated, but with out success. In 1857 he returned to Holland and applied to the home government, hoping to be vindi cated and restored to his post. Again he was disap pointed. The government offered him another desirable position; but, as it was a matter of principle with Dekker, he declined it.

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.

In this latter term we have at once a comprehensive and fitting name, and also the exact translation of the word Netherlands.

This process began in the earlier half of the sixteenth century some of the most remarkable achievements of the kind, like the draining Of the Haarlem Lake, occurred in the nineteenth, and it will be very strange if the present century does not witness a strenuous effort to reclaim at least a good part of the Zuyder Zee.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Holland: As Seen and Described by Famous Writers The purpose of this book, planned on similar lines to my former books on Japan and Russia, is to furnish the traveller with a general view of Holland. From many writers who treat of the history, topography, manners and customs and art of this interesting country, I have selected such essays and extracts as will best contribute towards this end; and have gathered between these covers such descriptive matter and general information as I think the tourist would like to carry with him, or to refresh his memory with on his return. Holland has much to offer to the traveller: the country alone, with its meadows, polders, dykes and windmills, its canals and curious boats, its country-seats and farm-houses, its cities and towns, with their picturesque architecture, presents a series of pictures that the memory will ever retain. To the student of history, Holland is full of associations; the art-lover has the splendid galleries of the Rijks, The Hague and the Boymans, and the antiquary finds innumerable museums in the small towns. Those who love gaiety will find much to delight them at the "Venice of the North," The Hague and Scheveningen.
