In July 1789 George Cadogan Morgan, born in Bridgend, Wales, and
the nephew of the celebrated radical dissenter Richard Price
(1723-91), found himself caught up in the opening events of the
French Revolution and its consequences. In 1808, his family left
Britain for America where his son, Richard Price Morgan, travelled
extensively, made a descent of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers by
raft and helped build some of the early American railroads. The
adventures of both men are related here via letters George sent
home to his family from France and through the autobiography
written by his son in America.

In this volume Paul Vincent presents a compelling collection of
prose fiction, memoirs and anecdotes centring on Amsterdam from the
seventeenth to the twenty-first century. His selection offers a
rare insight into the history and culture of the city. The subjects
range from Rembrandt to the persecution of the Jews in World War 2,
from barricades in a working-class district during the Depression
to a writer's unhealthy obsession with a massage parlour. These
eighteen newly-translated tales give the reader, and the traveller,
a tantalizing glimpse of the Amsterdam that lies beyond the tourist
guidebooks.
