5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating, well done translations, June 20, 2005

This review is from: Fort Orange Records, 1656-1678 (New Netherland Documents.) (Hardcover)
This volume catalogs a wide range of documents from twenty-two years of Fort Orange's records. The documents are clearly translated with useful notes (including notes on the translation) and excellent indices. The records show deeds transferring property, documents relating to debts of people associated with the settlement, and official (often quasi-official) correspondence. The indices are very useful, and the editor makes a number of useful comments on possible name variations.

I would very highly recommend this as educational source material for students learning how to use primary material. Also good for people doing genealogical work.
