The Anglo-Dutch wars of the 17th century were mainly caused by the economic rivalry between England and the Dutch Republic. The first war was declared by Holland in response to the adoption by the English parliament of the Navigation Act of 1651, directed against the Dutch intermediary trade. The second war was also declared by Holland in January 1665, but in fact it began as early as the 1664th capture by the English naval expedition of the Dutch colony in North America - New Amsterdam. The third Anglo-Dutch war was closely intertwined with previous military events; in the new war, France was the main opponent of the Dutch Republic. These wars were fought mainly at sea and played a significant role in the development of fleets and naval art. Another book in the series tells about famous and unknown naval battles and heroes of the Anglo-Dutch wars.
