TAILIEUCHUNG - Dutch Life in Town and Country

There is in human affairs a reason for everything we see, although not always reason in everything. It is the part of the historian to seek in the archives of a nation the reasons for the facts of common experience and observation, it is the part of the philosopher to moralize upon antecedent causes and present results. Neither of these positions is taken up by the author of this little book. He merely, as a rule, gives the picture of Dutch life now to be seen in the Netherlands, and in all things tries to be scrupulously fair to a people renowned for their kindness. | Dutch Life in Town and Country 1 Dutch Life in Town and Country The Project Gutenberg EBook of Dutch Life in Town and Country by P.
