Dominie Everardus Bogardus was the first permanent minister of the Dutch Reformed Church in New Amsterdam who arrived in America in 1633. He married the widow Anneke Jans who had a farm just to the north of the city walls. This land came to be called Dominie's Bouwerie. There have been land disputes over the ownership of this land since 1705. The descendants Everardus Bogardus have claimed that this land was improperly and illegally transferred to Trinity Church and should rightfully belong to them. Everardus Bogardus his wife Anneke Jans are my 9th great grandparents and like other defendants I believe in some ways that Tribeca really belongs me. In part this is a belief or maybe it would be better to call it a fantasy. This book is about the Dominie Bogardus and his descendants and who they were part of the rich Dutch history of the Hudson Valley.

In 1609, the first Dutch settlers arrived in America and established trading posts, small towns, and forts up and down what we now call the Hudson River. To this day, American children are taught the thrilling history of the transformation of this settlement, New Netherland, and its capital, New Amsterdam, from landmark port into present-day New York State and the island of Manhattan. But, the Dutch legacy extended far beyond New York, as Cookies, Coleslaw and Stoops reveals. From Santa Claus (after the Dutch folklore saint Sinterklaas) and his sleigh (the pronunciation of the Dutch slee is almost identical) to a dumbhead talking poppycock, the contributions of the Dutch language to American English are indelibly embedded to some of our most vernacular terms and expressions. The menu in most of our restaurants sports some originally Dutch names, and even our dollar is named after a Dutch coin (daalder). In this captivating volume, the renowned linguist Nicoline van der Sijs glosses over 300 Dutch loan words like these that travelled to the New World on board the Dutch ship the Halve Maan, captained by Henry Hudson, which dropped anchor in Manhattan more than 400 years ago. Surprisingly, the Dutch also gave several Native American languages words for everyday things like pants, cat and turkey. Lively and accessible, the information presented in this volume charts the journey of these words into the American territory and languages, from more obscure uses which maybe have survived in only regional dialects to such ubiquitous contributions to our language like Yankee, cookie, and dope. Each entry marks the original arrival of its term into American English and adds up-to-date information on its evolving meaning, etymology, and regional spread. Not to be missed by anyone with a passion for the history behind our everyday expressions, 'Cookies, Coleslaw and Stoops' is the perfect gift for the linguistic adventurer in us all.

The Hudson Valley Dutch have never received the attention due them in American history. There were comparatively few of them, they did not call attention to themselves, and therefore most people are hardly aware of their existence. This book attempts to restore them to their proper place in the American heritage. Also, this book should be useful to scholars as a summary of what is now known about the Hudson Valley Dutch, as the first coherent account of the development of their way of life over the three and a half centuries from their first settlements to the present, and for its suggestion of numerous topics on which further research is needed.

This edition of A Description of New Netherland provides the first complete and accurate English-language translation of an essential first-hand account of the lives and world of Dutch colonists and northeastern Native communities in the seventeenth century. Adriaen van der Donck, a graduate of Leiden University in the 1640s, became the law enforcement officer for the Dutch patroonship of Rensselaerswijck, located along the upper Hudson River. His position enabled him to interact extensively with Dutch colonists and the local Algonquians and Iroquoians. An astute observer, detailed recorder, and accessible writer, Van der Donck was ideally situated to write about his experiences and the natural and cultural worlds around him. Van der Donck s Beschryvinge van Nieuw-Nederlant was first published in 1655 and then expanded in 1656. An inaccurate and abbreviated English translation appeared in 1841 and was reprinted in 1968. This new volume features an accurate, polished translation by Diederik Willem Goedhuys and includes all the material from the original 1655 and 1656 editions. The result is an indispensable first-hand account with enduring value to historians, ethnohistorians, and anthropologists.
