The Dutch As Neutrals. Though the government of the United Provinces, at the beginning of the Anglo-American war, was neutral, with a tendency on the part of the stadtholder to oblige England whenever possible, it could not prevent agents of the American colonies as well as of France from carrying on secret negotiations on Dutch ground. Sir Joseph Yorke, the English ambassador at the Hague, reported, in April, 1776, confidentially to Lord Suffolk that a friend had shown him a letter of very suspicious contents, which had been intercepted at the post-office.1 It was from Abbe Desnoyers, the French charge d'affaires at the Hague, and directed to Count de Vergennes, the foreign minister in Paris, dated April 16. It revealed the fact that a certain person calling himself an Englishman and living in the United Provinces, but not at the Hague, was corresponding with Dr. Benjamin Franklin, then chairman of the committee of secret correspondence in Philadelphia. The com 1 Yorke to Suffolk, April 19, 1776 (Letters and extracts from the correspondence of Sir Joseph Yorke, in the library of Harvard University, Sparks MSS., LXXII). The United Provinces followed the practice of other countries at that time of having the letters of foreign ministers clandestinely opened at the post-office and copied. A special official then deciphered them. This was not so very difficult, since being appointed for this particular purpose, he was apt to find the key to the ciphers. In this way the reports of the French as well as of the Prussian minister were copied at the Hague, and also those of the Prussian envoy at the court of St. James, who sent his letters to Berlin by way of the United Provinces. The reports of the English envoy could not be...

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A magisterial account of how the cultural and maritime relationships between the British, Dutch and American territories changed the existing world order - and made the Industrial Revolution possible Between 1500 and 1800, the North Sea region overtook the Mediterranean as the most dynamic part of the world. At its core the Anglo-Dutch relationship intertwined close alliance and fierce antagonism to intense creative effect. But a precondition for the Industrial Revolution was also the establishment in British North America of a unique type of colony - for the settlement of people and culture, rather than the extraction of things. England's republican revolution of 1649-53 was a spectacular attempt to change social, political and moral life in the direction pioneered by the Dutch. In this wide-angled and arresting book Jonathan Scott argues that it was also a turning point in world history. In the revolution's wake, competition with the Dutch transformed the military-fiscal and naval resources of the state. One result was a navally protected Anglo-American trading monopoly. Within this context, more than a century later, the Industrial Revolution would be triggered by the alchemical power of American shopping

Kenney and published by Syracuse : Published for the New York State American Revolution Bicentennial Commission, Syracuse University Press. This book was released on 1975 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hudson Valley Dutch have never received the attention due them in American history. There were comparatively few of them, they did not call attention to themselves, and therefore most people are hardly aware of their existence. This book attempts to restore them to their proper place in the American heritage. Also, this book should be useful to scholars as a summary of what is now known about the Hudson Valley Dutch, as the first coherent account of the development of their way of life over the three and a half centuries from their first settlements to the present, and for its suggestion of numerous topics on which further research is needed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "God grant that not only the love of liberty, but a thorough knowledge of the rights of man, may prevail in all the nations of the earth, so that a philosopher may set his foot anywhere on its surface and say, This is my country." With this quotation from Benjamin Franklin, historian Richard Morris, Columbia University, opened the fourth Library of Congress Symposium on the American Revolution, held May 8 and 9, 1975, in the Librarys Coolidge Auditorium. For Americans, the Revolution brought independence, nationhood, a constitution clearly defining the relations of the state to the people, and reforms in social and economic equality. But what did it mean to the rest of the late 18th century world? Some answers to this question are found in the papers published in this volume. Following a comprehensive survey of the impact of the American Revolution abroad, by R. R. Palmer of Yale University, leading historians consider its effect on specific countries. France is discussed by Charles Fohlen of the University of Paris-Sorbonne; the Dutch Republic by J. W. Schulte Nordholt of the State University of Leiden; Great Britain by J. H. Plumb of Christs College, Cambridge; the Russian Empire by N. N. Bolkhoitinov of the Instittue of General History, Academy of Sciences of the USSR; the Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking world by Mario Rodriguez of the University of Southern California; and Ireland by Owen Dudley Edwards of the University of Edinburgh. Concluding the volume are commentaries on the American Revolution in relation to Germany, Japan, and Spain by Erich Angermann of the University of Cologne, Nagayo Homina of the University of Tokyo, and Ignacio Rubio Mañe, Archivist of Mexico.
