Pr�sentation de l'�diteur

American historian John Lothrop Motley (1814–77) graduated from Harvard in 1831. During 1832 and 1833 he studied in G�ttingen before returning to the United States. Already the author of two novels and numerous essays, he began to plan a history of the Netherlands, but, unable to find all the source material he needed in America, he returned to Europe in 1851, this time with his family. His first book on the subject was the widely acclaimed Rise of the Dutch Republic, which covered events up to 1584. Motley published this more ambitious four-volume sequel, covering events in the period 1584–1609, between 1860 and 1867. Volume 3 covers the numerous military and naval clashes, and political manoeuvring, between Spain and the alliance of England and Holland during the period 1590–1600.

Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book tells the story of the Dutch Revolt, through which the Netherlands fought for independence from Spain in the 16th and 17th centuries. The author argues that the English and Dutch peoples' shared Protestant faith and commercial interests led them to form an alliance, which ultimately ensured the survival of Protestantism and representative government both in Britain and the Netherlands. The author also explores the broader context of the conflict, showing how it was part of a wider struggle for power between Spain and France. The book is a vivid and engaging account of a pivotal moment in European history, and it sheds new light on the origins of modern democracy. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
