#srslygood — Public Fediverse posts

It has been an exceptional privilege to bring these chapters together and to press; while we aspired to a multi-faceted synthesis of the study of Anglo-Dutch connections in the early modern world, each and every one of our contributors individually presents ground-breaking, important, and captivating work. Read these chapters!
