Sinorama took a special visit to Holland to look into these questions. With the help of Professor Leonard Blusse of the Department of History at the University of Leiden, we got a look at the scope of Dutch com mercial sailing in the 17th century. At the same time we brought back many precious photos taken in the Archives at the Hague and the Museum of History at Leiden.
