I received my other Doeke Roos book, today
The last of the Doeke Roos books that I had ordered arrived today. This one was Zeeuwen en de VOC. The book is a small volume, but heavy for its size. The pages are slick, and there are 186 numbered pages. The cover is a reproduction of an oil painting showing a fleet of ships. The inside is profusely illustrated with black and white photographs, mostly of artwork. Sadly, I don't see anything in the book that would be of immediate interest.
