    About this ebook

    Fresh researches and unpublished documents may confer some interest on the present work, which has been for many years in preparation with the aid of much valued assistance. It was composed in the Library and Archive Office at the Hague, thanks to the obliging help of the learned Director of the Royal Library, M. Campbell of the deputy-keeper of the Archives, M. De J onge, who was prematurely called from his work; and one of his most distinguished assistants, M. Haig man. It is by studying the public and private correspondence of the Grand Pensionary year by year, that his history can be most faithfully written.
