This book describes the crucial period in the monumental eighty-year Dutch struggle against the Spanish Empire, through which a small nation gained its independence from one of the mightiest European powers. Dr. Ridley shows how even though the Dutch Revolt was at its lowest point, Maurits of Nassau and the Dutch fought on and the Revolt survived. It was a turbulent time, with complex diplomacy and shifting alliances, assassination plots, France torn by civil war, Spain spearheading the Counter-Reformation, England facing invasion and Europe eventually convulsed with the Thirty Years' War. In all these, the Dutch Revolt was a significant factor.The book also explores subsequent insurgencies over the following three centuries where nationalist groups revolted against European powers, and analyzes and identifies essential factors for a successful insurgency. The key roles of finance and international relations in insurgencies are emphasized. This volume will be informative and compelling reading for readers and students of history, international relations, and insurgencies.

Boka handler om Maurits Hansens fortellermåter, hvordan han lager en god historie. Den er også ment å skulle fungere som introduksjon til hans forfatterskap. Både dikteren og diktningen hans introduseres derfor parallelt med analysene
Den smarte gatekatten Maurits har pønsket ut en vanntett måte å få pengene til å trille ut av menneskelommer både her og der. Sammen med en litt gutt som spiller fløyte og et intelligent rottefølge, har han full kontroll. Men en dag kommer følget til et sted der noen andre alt er igang med langt mer enn fantestreker! Pipa får en ny lyd, og det klinger av mørke toner. De glupe rottene blir nødt til å lære seg et helt nytt ord: "ONDSKAP!"Ingen overgår Pratchett i sin lekne, men også snedige fantasy når det dreier seg om å skape nye spenstige verdner. Boka er fullstappet med eventyr-parodier, oppfinnsomt språk og samtidig har historien en overraskende mørk nerve.

The History of Brazil under the Governorship of Count Johan Maurits of Nassau, 1636-1644

At its height in the first half of the seventeenth century, the Dutch West India Company controlled a scattered but sizeable portion of the western hemisphere, from present-day Albany, New York, to northeast Brazil. In 1647, the Dutch historian, theologian, and philosopher Caspar van Baerle created a landmark historical narrative, which he published in Latin. Now, after more than 350 years, the definitive record of the brief period when the Dutch ruled Brazil is available in English for the first time. Included are rare historical descriptions of relations with the native population, the indigenous flora and fauna, the workings of the sugar economy, attitudes toward private property and religious pluralism, global intrigue involving the Spanish and Portuguese, and the development of the slave trade. The original illustrations and maps from van Baerle's volume--a number of which are reproduced here--were used by Europeans well into the nineteenth century.
