Going Dutch: How England Plundered Holland's Glory
Lisa Jardine
In Going Dutch, renowned writer Lisa Jardine tells the remarkable history of the relationship between <?xml: namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn: schemas-microsoft-com: office: smarttags" />England and Holland, two of Europe?s most important colonial powers at the dawn of the modern age. Jardine, the author of The Awful End of Prince William the Silent, demonstrates that England?s rise did not come at the expense of the Dutch as is commonly thought, but was actually a ?handing on? of the baton of cultural and intellectual supremacy to a nation expanding in international power and influence.<?xml: namespace prefix = o ns = "urn: schemas-microsoft-com: office: office" />
