Book excerpt: Excerpt from Behind Manhattan Gables: A Story of New Amsterdam 1663-1664 Would a resident of New York fully appreciate all the things in the past helping to make it grand Would an outsider, rejoicing as a broad-minded American in New York's greatness, understand everything con tributing to that success? Would a Hollander know what grand foundations some of his own kin, it may be, laid here in America Would a young student of English history know of that early New York to which brave and adventurous Englishmen came, to live and rule there? Then all these must be students in the homes, the shops, the streets of little New Amsterdam. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The inspiration for the NBC drama New Amsterdam and in the spirit of Oliver Sacks, this intensely involving memoir from a former medical director of a major NYC hospital looks poignantly at patients' lives and reveals the author's own battle with cancer. Using the plights of twelve very different patients--from dignitaries at the nearby UN, to supermax prisoners at Riker's Island, to illegal immigrants, and Wall Street tycoons--Dr. Eric Manheimer "offers far more than remarkable medical dramas: he blends each patient's personal experiences with their social implications" (Publishers Weekly). Manheimer was not only the medical director of the country's oldest public hospital for over 13 years, but he was also a patient. As the book unfolds, the narrator is diagnosed with cancer, and he is forced to wrestle with the end of his own life even as he struggles to save the lives of others.

This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Year Book of the Holland Society of New York: The Story of New Amsterdam, 1917 While it is true that the Dutch East India Company, interested only in Asiatic commerce, saw fit to ignore Hudson's report on the possibilities of the fur trade in the region that he had visited, certain shrewd merchants of Amsterdam dispatched a number of small ships to traffic with the Indians on Manhattan. By 1613 it appears that their agents had built three or four rude cabins in the neighborhood, perhaps, of 39 Broadway. Another vessel, the Tiger, commanded by Captain Adrian Block, happened to burn up, but the loss was quickly repaired. The oaks that sheltered bears on the slopes of Wall Street, where today bulls as well as bears are found, were fashioned into a trim sloop of sixteen tons and christened the 'onrust' or 'restless, ' a name prophetic of that restless or unresting commerce of which it was the tiny germ. With this product of Manhattan raw material Block sailed into the Sound via the East River, which he called the Hellegat after a branch of the river Scheldt near Hulst in Zealand. Whether the word means clear inlet, or figuratively what its present English spelling and pronunciation might indicate, the name is now applied only to that part of the East River where its waters mingle with those of the Sound.

Book excerpt: No one has written more feelingly and more beautifully than Nescio about the madness and sadness, courage and vulnerability of youth: its big plans and vague longings, not to mention the binges, crashes, and marathon walks and talks. No one, for that matter, has written with such pristine clarity about the radiating canals of Amsterdam and the cloud-swept landscape of the Netherlands. Who was Nescio? Nescio—Latin for “I don’t know”—was the pen name of J.H.F. Grönloh, the highly successful director of the Holland–Bombay Trading Company and a father of four—someone who knew more than enough about respectable maturity. Only in his spare time and under the cover of a pseudonym, as if commemorating a lost self, did he let himself go, producing over the course of his lifetime a handful of utterly original stories that contain some of the most luminous pages in modern literature. This is the first English translation of Nescio’s stories.

This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The De Forests and the Walloon Founding of New Amsterdam With the steady growth in the past twenty years Of general interest in matters of history and biogra phy, further research among early records Of state in Holland, England, and the American Colonies has brought within reach Of the general public a number Of documents relating to the very earliest settlements in the New Netherland. By these later investiga tions it now appears clearly established that, while the Dutch were first in the field as explorers and traders, the belgian-french were their predecessors as actual settlers with homes, families, cattle and tilled fields. The first to bring their wives and chil dren, the first to plow and plant, the first to build permanent residences upon the island Of Manhattan and the site Of New York City, were a company of Walloons recruited and enrolled by Jesse De Forest Of Avesnes - not included as a negligible minority in a colony planned by the Dutch Government, but gathered together Of their own motion and wish as a racial and religious unit, seeking from the united Netherlands only permission to make a settlement, and means Of transportation. It is Of this Walloon colony, of its leader, Jesse De Forest, and Of the part it played in the first days of New Amsterdam, that the present paper in a modest way seeks to treat.
