History in Focus (Virtual Event)
The most populous Dutch settlements in the 17th century were in Nieuw Amsterdam (lower Manhattan) and in Albany, and most Dutch records produced in the period were produced in one of those two cities. This lunchtime lecture focuses on the documentary record of Upper Manhattan, looking at what records survive and what they tell us about diversity and intercultural interactions in this less well-studied area.
