Excerpt from Behind Manhattan Gables: A Story of New Amsterdam 1663-1664 To all readers interested in American, English, and Dutch history, let me say this prefatory word. I have had a special purpose in writing this book, though in the form of a story. It is well to go back to beginnings, the seed of things. I am to tell about a seed so very small - the seed, the beginning of a grand city. One autumn morning, from the deck of a Sound steamer, after passing beneath Brooklyn Bridge, I looked for Trinity Church spire. There was the church at the head of Wall Street. The little fragment of New York between Wall Street and the Battery was New Amsterdam - New York in seed. How short a walk the Dutchman of 1663 took to go around the beloved borders of his island city! With profound interest I have gone through some of the old streets of colonial days still in existence. I walked along Bridge Street, or De Brug Straat of olden time. I shut my eyes and imagined that I saw the Katryne and Geertruyd of this story, in their picturesque Dutch dress, coming to meet me. In Broad Street, once De Heeren Graft, I thought of the canal that pierced it, a fond memorial of old Holland. I looked down and saw in fancy the clumsy barges bringing cargoes from vessels in the stream. I passed Stone Street, and the next must be the old-time Beaver Street, I said, De Bever Graft.

The essays in this book offer a rich sampling of current scholarship on New Netherland and Dutch colonization in North America. The Introduction explains why the Dutch moment in American history has been overlooked or trivialized and calls attention to signs of the emergence of a new narrative of American beginnings that gives due weight to the imprint of Dutch settlement in America. The essays are organized around six major themes: New Netherland and Historical Memory, New Netherland in the Atlantic World, The Political Economy of New Netherland, New Netherland’s Directors: A New Look, Family Research as a key to New Netherland’s History, and Writing the History of New Netherland in the Twenty-first Century. This volume holds great interest for historians of early America and of Dutch colonization. Contributors include: Willem Frijhoff, Charles Th. Gehring, Joyce D. Goodfriend, Firth Haring Fabend, Jaap Jacobs, Wim Klooster, Harry Macy, Jr., Dennis J. Maika, Simon Middleton, Bertrand Van Ruymbeke, Annette Stott, David William Voorhees, and Richard Waldron.
