| Dutch Village Communities On The Hudson River is a historical book written by Irving Elting, which was first published in 1886. The book provides a detailed account of the early Dutch settlements along the Hudson River in New York State. It covers the period from the arrival of the Dutch in the early 17th century to the end of the Dutch colonial era in 1664.The book is divided into two parts. The first part provides an overview of the Dutch colonial period in general, including the reasons for Dutch settlement in the New World, the establishment of the Dutch West India Company, and the early explorations of the Hudson River. The second part of the book focuses specifically on the Dutch village communities that developed along the Hudson River, including settlements such as Rensselaerwyck, Beverwyck (Albany), and Esopus (Kingston).Elting provides a detailed description of the social, economic, and political structures of these communities, including the role of the patroon system, the development of agriculture and commerce, and the relationships between the Dutch settlers and the Native American tribes in the area. He also discusses the impact of English colonization on the Dutch communities and the eventual transfer of power to the English in 1664.Overall, Dutch Village Communities On The Hudson River is a comprehensive and informative historical account of the early Dutch settlements in New York State. It provides valuable insights into the social, economic, and political structures of these communities and their impact on the development of the region.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
