Pagination begins at page 4; it is not apparent that there are any missing pages. ; [a project by] Eva Pel ; [ed. by Claudia Doms ... et al. ; images by Eva Pel ... et al.]. "This Summer, I went to conduct fieldwork in New York. My plan was to visit all the events the Dutch government (co-)organized to celebrate 400 years of Dutch-American relations. To be more precise: to celebrate the 400th anniversary of the arrival of Henry Hudson and his ship the "Halve Maen" in nowadays New York. I wanted to see the events to get an idea of how the Netherlands is being represented in New York. What does it mean to be Dutch? Which audience does the festival reach? And what does the Netherlands want to show to New Yorkers about our history, present and future? Curious about other people's views on these topics, I interviewed eleven Dutch and American people, who were in one or another way involved in the NY400 celebrations." - Preface. ; 129 pages .
