This book is a case study in American-European relations in the first half of the nineteenth century. Based upon the official and private correspondence of American diplomats to the Netherlands, it fills an important gap in U.S. diplomatic historiography. Introduced with a sketch of the foundations and organization of U.S. foreign policy and a survey of the first American diplomats in the Netherlands in the late eighteenth century, this book offers a gallery of biographies of their successors stationed at The Hague and Brussels, who viewed the European and Dutch situation more or less through sceptical American lenses and tended to stress and exaggerate the antithesis between the Old and New Worlds. Contrary to the popular image of nineteenth-century American diplomats as incompetent amateurs, Dr. van Minnen argues that, at least in the Dutch case, they performed their duties well and that their reports provided the United States with valuable information on the ins and outs of Europe in general and Dutch-American relations in particular.

For almost 33 years, Cornelis (Kees) van Minnen served with distinction as the director of the Roosevelt Study Center (RSC) in Middelburg, the Netherlands. During his tenure from 1984 through 2016, the RSC developed from an idea into a highly appreciated and renowned center for the study of American history and U.S.-European relations. Nelson Mandela characterized the RSC as "a famous center of excellence." With its growing number of U.S. archival collections, the RSC attracted thousands of researchers from several continents and featured a vibrant program of international conferences, seminars, public lectures, Ph.D. and other research projects, and a steady flow of publications. 0In appreciation of Cornelis van Minnen's more than three decades of dedication to the RSC and of his many contributions to the study of American history and U.S.-European relations, a stellar cast of European and American scholars band together in this Festschrift with a mosaic of essays about America as varied as their current interests in U.S. history and culture.
