In recent years, the study of New Netherland and the Dutch Atlantic has become attractive to a new generation of scholars. In an effort to introduce them and their new work to a wider audience, the New Netherland Institute would like to offer these “new stories” based on their new research. Most of this work has never before appeared in print. We hope you find them both interesting and informative.
