With its flourishing maritime trade and lucrative colonial possessions, the young Dutch Republic enjoyed a cultural and economic pre-eminence, becoming the leading commercial power in the world. Dutch seamen plied the world's waters, trading,exploring, and colonizing. Many also took up pillaging, terrorizing their victims on the high seas and on European waterways. Surprisingly, this story of Dutch freebooters and their depredations remains almost entirely untold until now. Piracy and Privateering in the Golden Age Netherlands presents new data and understandings of early modern piracy generally, and also sheds important new light on Dutch and European history as well, such as the history of national identity and state formation, and the history of crime and criminality. 606 $aPrivateering$zNetherlands$xHistory$y17th century 606 $aPirates$zNetherlands$xHistory$y17th century 607 $aNetherlands$xHistory, Naval 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aPrivateering$xHistory 615 0$aPirates$xHistory 676 $a910.4/5 700 $aLunsford$b Virginia West$0854513 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910451092703321 996 $aPiracy and privateering in the golden age Netherlands$91908230 997 $aUNINA
