Carpet of Silver: The Wreck of the Zuytdorp,
By Robert (Leeuwarden, The Netherlands) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Carpet of Silver: The Wreck of the Zuytdorp (Paperback)
While reading Road to Mount Buggery,(Mark Whittaker and Amy Willesee) my attention was drawn to the possible contact and mix between Dutch survivors of the Zuytdorp and the Aboriginals of Western Australia. Travelling to Australia as often as I can, I had to known more about this topic. The book has not disapointed me at all, and gave me all the information that is probably available. Good references for further reading.
Very interesting for those who want to read about marine archeology in Western Australian waters in general, history and shipwrecks of(Dutch)VOC, and the area where Australian and Dutch history meet. It has been a starting point for me to read more about the VOC and their shipwrecks in the world (best known are Batavia and Zuydwijk) |
