Amsterdam: geschiedenis van de meest vrijzinnige stad ter wereld

Shorto's narrative sheds light on a city known for its openness, but I wonder what specific stories or events sparked his fascination with this aspect of its past.

Amsterdam's evolution seems intertwined with its culture of tolerance—did the book change how others see the influence of urban environments on society?

With so much history to cover, it’s interesting to consider how he chose which moments best illustrate Amsterdam’s character and values.
