About the Book:
This third volume in the series of Dutch Sources on South Asia
c. 1600-1825 is a guide to Dutch archival materials and two-dimensional works

of the voluminous archives and collections deriving from the Dutch East India
Company (VOC) stored in Chennai, Colombo, Jakarta, Cape Town, London and Paris,
as well as miscellaneous Dutch sources scattered elsewhere in South Asia, Europe,
North America and the Far East.
Together with Volumes 1 and 2 which deal with the National
Archives of the Netherlands and other repositories in the Netherlands respectively,
