I wonder if anybody else has the knowledge that Mr Barlee had. Even though I am a Montanan, I was privileged to watch most of these programs when they first aired. Thanks Colin
Oh this was VERY lovely!!! Colin M Thank you for sharing this treasure with us! I was viewing this while, ironically sitting on a Hudson Bay Blanket. with a Flint Lock not that far away. We need all the Canadian history we can get.... With the current Prime Minister doing his very best to erase it!
The Amsterdam was an East Indiaman or "Transom return ship" (Dutch: spiegelretourschip) built for transport between the Dutch Republic and the settlements and strongholds of the Dutch East India Company in the East Indies. On an outward voyage these ships carried guns and bricks for the settlements and strongholds, and silver and golden coins to purchase Asian goods. On a return journey the ships carried the goods that were purchased, such as spices, fabrics, and china. In both directions the ships carried victuals, clothes, and tools for the sailors and soldiers on the ship. On an outward voyage of eight months, the ships were populated by around 240 men, and on a return journey by around 70.[1]
