He has written several books on political history and philosophy\, including Americas\, That’s Us: The Dutch Influences on the Founding Fathers\, which explores how the Dutch Republic shaped the ideas and institutions behind America’s founding. \n  \n  \n\n \nRussell Shorto is the director of the New Amsterdam Project at The New York Historical. He is the author of seven books\, including Taking Manhattan and the national bestseller The Island at the Center of the World. \n  \n  \n\nLive From New Amsterdam is an ongoing series hosted by the New Netherland Institute and the New Amsterdam Project at The New York Historical.
