1609WRCAM33906The Hague: Hillebrant Iacobz 1609. 11pp. Large vignette on titlepage. Modern marbled boards. Very good. The original edition of the official Dutch text of the "Twelve Years' Truce" between the United Provinces and Spain. There are thirty- eight articles of which nine deal with foreign trade. The present issue undoubtedly the first contains a few errors which were corrected in later issues. By this treaty the Dutch agreed to stay out of Spanish controlled possessions in the New World. However it conceded the right of the Dutch to trade in the East Indies and on the basis of this and the breathing room the treaty gave them they were able to rout the Spanish in the 1620s. Savelle calls the Twelve Years' Truce "a great international triumph for all the challengers of the Hispano-Portuguese monopoly" on New World colonization since it marked the first explicit recognition of the right of any non- Iberian people to sail to the Americas. Spain tacitly recognized the right of the Dutch to own colonies in the New World a right which the Dutch French and British vigorously pursued in the ensuing decades. An important treaty and quite scarce. OCLC locates three copies. Not in EUROPEAN AMERICANA. DAVENPORT 28. KNUTTEL 1589. SAVELLE THE ORIGINS OF AMERICAN DIPLOMACY pp.31-34. OCLC 8525118 17751928.

1923103159<p>Small 8vo original red paper wrapper paper label for title on front wrapper large colored folding map 25" x 19". Wrappers were probably generic and attached to the map that was needed which is why the used a paper label for title. Wrapper has some wear at extremities especially the spine area but still in tact;  map is bright and clean and in very good plus condition.  The date of 1923 is on the paper wrapper but it is unclear if that's when this map was published still it’s likely from the 1920s. A very attractive tourist map that has considerable detail and includes an inset showing population density in Holland. The tile on the map is The Netherlands. </p> "Geographia" Ltd, books
