This book also challenges the idea that the Dutch were responsible for England's financial woes, demonstrating that English financial mismanagement was primarily to blame. Through a detailed examination of primary sources, the author presents a nuanced and comprehensive understanding of the relationship between these two nations, shedding light on the complexities of international relations during this era.
