    Johannes Menne Postma, Johannes Postma et al.BOOKRiches from Atlantic Commerce2003

    While it is generally recognized that the Dutch played a prominent part in the world economy of the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, most studies of Dutch long-distance shipping and trade have focused on Asia and neglected the Atlantic region.

    Johannes Postma, George Winius et al.ARTICLEThe American Historical Review1994Cited by: 2

    The Dutch presence in India is all but a forgotten memory with little to remind us that the once mighty Veringde Oostindische Companie (VOC, the United Dutch East India Company), was a major presence in India for almost two centuries, and indeed, the most powerful European power in the region for over half that period. This volume is the first to examine the fluctuating fortunes of this once great company over its entire history from 1600 to 1795…
