How the Dutch Came to Manhattan (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Excerpt from How the Dutch Came to Manhattan

As a nation of sea-farers and traders, the Dutch acquired an enviable reputation, and for them to have so successfully founded a commercial colony was but to have been expected.

The history of the city of New York has been ably and exhaustively treated by many notable writers, and to them, as well as to other prolific sources, we are indebted for the verification of our facts.
