"In Dutch Deltas, Werner Scheltjens examines the emergence, functions and structure
of the Low Countries' maritime transport system between ca. 1300 and 1850. Scheltjens
introduces the delta as a suitable geographical unit of analysis for understanding
the regional economic origins of communities of maritime transportersc. The author
proves that changes in maritime trade networks and in the structure of regional economies
entailed a process of specialisation, which led to the emergence of 'professional'
maritime transport communities and the development of an integrated maritime transport
market with Amsterdam and Rotterdam as its main centres. Dutch Deltas offers the first
comprehensive study of the economic geography of the Low Countries' maritime transport
sector and its long-term development between 1300 and 1850"--Provided by publisher
