Excerpt from Histories of England, France, Germany, and Holland: From the Encyclopaedia Britannica But when Baeda, and after him the Chronicler, gives a short ethnological account of the invaders, they describe the Teutonic conquerors of Kent neither as Saxons nor as Angles, but as J utes. As the J utes then, in the very cord of their conquest, are spoken of, on the one hand Saxons, on the other hand as English, it seems to follow that, from the very beginning, the Celtic inhabitants of Britain called all Teutonic invaders Saxons, while the in vaders themselves from the very beginning used Angle or English as their common name. The general use of the Saxon name by the Celts is only what we should have looked for; the wide use of the English name among the Teutons themselves is a fact to be noticed. It is at least certain that, while the English name is often applied to Saxons and, jutes, it would be hard to find any case where an Angle calls himself, or is called in his own tongue, a Saxon. We need not infer that the English name had become the common name of all the three tribes before they left Germany it certainly became so within no long time after they settled in Britain.

An enthralling exploration of the Netherlands unfolds here as the book tracing the nation's history from ancient times to the dawn of the 20th century. T.C. Grattan's rich narrative takes you through the highs and lows of this resilient country, unveiling the secrets of its past with remarkable detail. From the legendary struggles for independence against Spain, surpassing the American revolution in length and intensity, to the rise of influential figures like William the Silent, the Dutch spirit of determination and patriotism shines through every page. While battles and rulers weave the main thread, the author's admiration for Dutch culture and art, exemplified by the remarkable talents of Rembrandt and the golden age, adds a vibrant dimension to the tale.
