Dutch Primacy in World Trade 1585-1740

Jonathan I. Israel

4/5 ( ratings)

The Dutch Republic, despite its small size and population, functioned as the hub of world trade, shipping, and finance for over a century following the fall of Antwerp in 1585. This is the first general account of Dutch world-trade hegemony in all its aspects from its origins as a depot for "bulk-carrying" in the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries down to its collapse during the course of the eighteenth.
