Dit boek is uitverkocht.Joop Faber has specialized in the history of Friesland's overseas trade. Over the years he added to this a subsidiary subject, relations with Northern Germany and the Baltic. Thus the idea of presenting him with a collection of studies on this second subject to mark his retirement as Professor of Economic and Social History at Amsterdam University was both obvious and appropriate. Specialists produced articles on a wide range of economic topics, involving the history of Dutch relations of trade and industry with countries such as Sweden, Norway, Russia and Poland.
