Britain and the Dutch Revolt, 1560-1700

The Dutch revolt against Spain in the sixteenth century and Britain's civil wars in the seventeenth were the first major challenges to royal authority in modern times. Drawing on the pamphlet literature of both upheavals, this book reveals the Netherlands' lasting impact on Britain's commercial, religious and political culture.
