Philip Dröge neemt je mee naar een vergeten stukje geschiedenis van de Nederlandse taal Drie eeuwen lang spraken overal in de staten New York en New Jersey mensen de Tawl, de Amerikaanse versie van het Nederlands. Het was een overblijfsel van de tijd waarin New York nog Nieuw-Amsterdam heette en je zonder het Nederlands nergens kwam aan de oostkust van Amerika. De Verenigde Staten hebben zelfs een Nederlandssprekende president gehad, Martin Van Buren. Pas in de twintigste eeuw raakte het Neder-Amerikaans in onbruik en in 1962 overleed de laatste spreker van dit merkwaardige Nederlandse dialect. In De Tawl gaat historicus Philip Dröge al fietsend over Amerikaanse wegen op zoek naar wat er nu nog over is van dat Nederlandstalige verleden. Het resultaat is een opmerkelijk verhaal over de Nederlandse oorsprong van woorden als ‘OK’ en ‘dope’ en over gekke rechters, slavernij, komieken en oplichters. Philip Dröge is historicus, columnist en journalist. Van hem verschenen eerder de historische boeken De schaduw van Tambora, Moresnet, Pelgrim en Moederstad. Hij schrijft voor diverse kranten en tijdschriften en treedt geregeld op als gastspreker en commentator in actualiteits- en discussieprogramma’s op radio en televisie. Zijn boeken zijn vertaald in het Duits en Italiaans en werden genomineerd voor de Jan Wolkers Prijs en de Libris Geschiedenis Prijs. Over De schaduw van Tambora: ‘Verborgen vaderlandse geschiedenis opgedist met een fijn huivergehalte.’ Frank Westerman ‘Een geweldige zoektocht naar onbekende vaderlandse geschiedenis.’ BNR Nieuwsradio Over Moresnet: ‘Historische schakelvertelkunst van het hoogste niveau.’ ••••• NRC ‘Het leest als een sprookje, maar alles is waargebeurd. In een meeslepende stijl laat Dröge ons kennismaken met Nederlands vergeten buurlandje.’ Stephan Sanders Over Pelgrim: ‘Philip Dröge heeft een scherp oog voor intrigerende, weinig bekende stukjes geschiedenis dicht bij huis.’ NRC ‘Een vlot boek waarin we als het ware meekijken over de schouder van de hoofdpersoon. […] Heel veel lezers gaan zich hiermee uitstekend vermaken.’ Het Parool Over Moederstad: ‘Het levert een met veel raffinement gecomponeerd verhaal op met pareltjes van zinnen.’ Trouw ‘Een fascinerend verhaal, verteld met flair en fijnzinnige ironie.’ Historisch Nieuwsblad

The Encyclopedia of New York State is one of the most complete works on the Empire State to be published in a half-century. In nearly 2,000 pages and 4,000 signed entries, this single volume captures the impressive complexity of New York State as a historic crossroads of people and ideas, as a cradle of abolitionism and feminism, and as an apex of modern urban, suburban, and rural life. The Encyclopedia is packed with fascinating details from fields ranging from sociology and geography to history. Did you know that Manhattan's Lower East Side was once the most populated neighborhood in the world, but Hamilton County in the Adirondacks is the least densely populated county east of the Mississippi; New York is the only state to border both the Great Lakes and the Atlantic Ocean; the Erie Canal opened New York City to rich farmland upstate . . . and to the west. Entries by experts chronicle New York's varied areas, politics, and persuasions with a cornucopia of subjects from environmentalism to higher education to railroads, weaving the state's diverse regions and peoples into one idea of New York State. Lavishly illustrated with 500 photographs and figures, 120 maps, and 140 tables, the Encyclopedia is key to understanding the state's past, present, and future. It is a crucial reference for students, teachers, historians, and business people, for New Yorkers of all persuasions, and for anyone interested in finding out more about New York State.

This fascinating biography tells the story of nineteenth-century America through the life of one of its most charismatic and influential characters: Sojourner Truth. In an in-depth account of this amazing activist, Margaret Washington unravels Sojourner Truth's world within the broader panorama of African American slavery and the nation's most significant reform era. Born into bondage among the Hudson Valley Dutch in Ulster County, New York, Isabella was sold several times, married, and bore five children before fleeing in 1826 with her infant daughter one year before New York slavery was abolished. In 1829, she moved to New York City, where she worked as a domestic, preached, joined a religious commune, and then in 1843 had an epiphany. Changing her name to Sojourner Truth, she began traveling the country as a champion of the downtrodden and a spokeswoman for equality by promoting Christianity, abolitionism, and women's rights. Gifted in verbal eloquence, wit, and biblical knowledge, Sojourner Truth possessed an earthy, imaginative, homespun personality that won her many friends and admirers and made her one of the most popular and quoted reformers of her times. Washington's biography of this remarkable figure considers many facets of Sojourner Truth's life to explain how she became one of the greatest activists in American history, including her African and Dutch religious heritage; her experiences of slavery within contexts of labor, domesticity, and patriarchy; and her profoundly personal sense of justice and intuitive integrity. Organized chronologically into three distinct eras of Truth's life, Sojourner Truth's America examines the complex dynamics of her times, beginning with the transnational contours of her spirituality and early life as Isabella and her embroilments in legal controversy. Truth's awakening during nineteenth-century America's progressive surge then propelled her ascendancy as a rousing preacher and political orator despite her inability to read and write. Throughout the book, Washington explores Truth's passionate commitment to family and community, including her vision for a beloved community that extended beyond race, gender, and socioeconomic condition and embraced a common humanity. For Sojourner Truth, the significant model for such communalism was a primitive, prophetic Christianity. Illustrated with dozens of images of Truth and her contemporaries, Sojourner Truth's America draws a delicate and compelling balance between Sojourner Truth's personal motivations and the influences of her historical context. Washington provides important insights into the turbulent cultural and political climate of the age while also separating the many myths from the facts concerning this legendary American figure.
