“
I am more grateful than you will ever know for the gift of that map by Wille[m] Blaeu, the
famous Dutch cartographer.
“
Three centuries have elapsed since Blaeu made his map and world boundaries have changed
many times in that period. But the focus of world attention is again on Asia and the Near
East—the very area which Blaeu indicated with such an artistic touch. Verily, history does
repeat itself.”
