Specialist Notes

Interesting and well documented report by Cardinal Bentivoglio on the wars of Flanders; he was a direct witness, as apostolic nuncio, to the events that involved Holland from 1607 for about ten years. The work contains a treatise on the Huguenots, a report on the truce of 1609 in Antwerp and on the resumption of military events in 1614.
