Henry Hudson and the Dutch Founding of New York by Clifford Smyth is a historical account of the exploration and settlement of New York by the Dutch in the early 17th century. The book focuses on the life and expeditions of Henry Hudson, an English explorer who sailed for the Dutch East India Company in search of a Northwest Passage to Asia. The author describes Hudson's four voyages, including his discovery of the Hudson River and his interactions with Native American tribes. The book also delves into the political and economic factors that led the Dutch to establish a colony in the region, as well as the challenges they faced in maintaining control over the territory. Smyth provides a detailed examination of the Dutch colonial period, including the establishment of New Amsterdam, the growth of the fur trade, and the conflicts between the Dutch and the English over control of the region. Overall, Henry Hudson and the Dutch Founding of New York offers a comprehensive look at the early history of New York and the role played by Hudson and the Dutch in its founding.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
