Présentation Newcomers de Alan Mikhail Format Relié
- Livre
Résumé : A man thought to be Muslim from Morocco and a German barmaid are hardly the image we have of America's founders. In Newcomers, Alan Mikhail upends the traditional story of American beginnings through the tale of Anthony the Turk and Grietje Reyniers. Married in Amsterdam, they arrived in 1630s Dutch New Amsterdam, hoping to forge a new life. Always outsiders in the young colony, they battled Dutch authorities, brawled with neighbors, and seized land from Native Americans. In this revisionist portrait of the early American family, we learn of anti-Muslim sentiment through Anthony and of female defiance through Grietje. Eventually banished from Manhattan to Long Island, Anthony and Grietje farmed, prospered, and raised a family whose descendants included the Vanderbilts and President Harding. Promising to change the way we understand Colonial Gotham's formative first years (Susanah Shaw Romney), Alan Mikhail's Newcomers provides revelatory insights into the seventeenth-century origins of New York.
