Description
Henry Hudson in Holland is a historical inquiry into the origin and purpose of the voyage that led to the discovery of the Hudson River. Written by Henry Cruse Murphy and first published in 1909, this book explores the life and career of Henry Hudson, a 17th-century English explorer who sailed under the Dutch flag in search of a Northwest Passage to Asia. Murphy delves into the political and economic factors that motivated the Dutch East India Company to finance Hudson's voyage and the cultural context of the Dutch Republic during the Golden Age of exploration. He also examines Hudson's interactions with the indigenous peoples he encountered on his journey, as well as the impact of his discovery on the subsequent colonization and exploitation of the Hudson River Valley. This book offers a detailed and nuanced perspective on the early history of European exploration and colonization in North America.With Bibliographical Notes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
