Every American should know the American-Dutch history facts that took place after 1609 when the Dutch colonised the islands at the mouth of what is now the Hudson River. This book will provide you with more knowledge and insight into the remarkable history and hidden facts. Many will be amazed and recognise facts that are relevant even today. The points in common between The Netherlands and America are remarkable and can easily be traced back. Both countries have developed differently because of outside influence and opinions. However, the ties of friendship have always remained strong and in difficult times help was offered mutually. What has remained unchanged is the way people live together and how they should treat one another. Tolerance and freedom are as relevant today as they were centuries ago. The Dutch had set down these basic rights very early in their history and implemented them politically and socially. This range of thought fell on fertile ground in America. The independent American recognised these sincere ideals and followed them until today. This book offers you an insight into the history of both nations in arelaxed way.
