Omschrijving
This book, mainly based on primary sources from various countries, provides fascinating new insights into the origin and development of the Admiralty and maritime policy in the Low Countries before the Dutch Revolt, including government interference with maritime strategy, warfare, privateering, prize law, commerce, and fishery.
"...a solid account of the Habsburg foundations on which the Dutch Admiralties were able to build." James D. Tracy, Bijdragen en Mededlingen betreffende de Geschiedenis der Nederlanden, 2005. "...nicht allein für diejenigen Historiker interessant, die sich mit der Geschichte der Seekriegsführung beschäftigen, sondern auch für diejenigen, die sich mit Prozessen der Staatsbildung befassen." M. van Tielhof, Hansische Geschichtsblätter, 2005. "…a major contribution to historical study…a distinguished demonstration of scholarship and a major contribution to the field of maritime history…" John B. Hattendorf, International Journal of Maritime History. "…important contribution to early modern maritime history…Highly recommended." G.D. Homan, Choice, 2005. "...fine work with a strong case for the lasting influence of Hapsburg policies in giving the Netherlands a wider worldview... this work is a real asset. It covers with meticulous care the diverse influences that created one of the great maritime powers in Europe...very successful in blending military concerns with those of general public policy and process." Charlie R. Steen, Renaissance Quarterly, Vol. LVIII, No. 2, 2005.
