History, Archaeology, and Art Illuminate a Life on the Hudson
Former NNI trustee Bill Greer and archaeologist Paul Huey present the life of an early Dutch settler in Rensselaerswijck, of whom Mrs. Schuyler van Rensselaer said, “No man who had ever been the colony, it may be said, had done it as good service as he.”
