[Usselinx [Usselincx], Willem (1567-1647]. Ligtenberg, Catharina. — Willem Usselinx. [Thesis].

Utrecht, A. Oosthoek, 1914, (10),237,(2); CXXXII,(1) pag., frontispiece portrait, original wrappers, square octavo (21,7 x 17,1 cm.).= In 1621, Usselincx was one of the founding fathers of the Dutch West India Company, an enterprise he had planned for many years. His intentions were not entirely commercial. He hoped to create a new and better society. He expected that thousands of Protestants would migrate to America. He did not wish so much to exploit the country, but rather to let arise a New Netherland. In this secondary goal, he was insufficiently supported by the States-Generla of the Netherlands.
