About the Book
A land of peat and mists is in the author’s heart, but not her eyes. She writes lovingly about various ancestors and the context in which they lived. These stories are the “treats” but as with any “Dutch Treat” the reader is also asked to reciprocate and view the disconnect of migration in a general sense. This anthology is for all those who have visited the Netherlands and wondered why people felt the need to migrate.
