This chapter tells the story of the book collection of the Dutch Church in Austin Friars, London, during the first 50 years of its existence, from 1550 to 1600. Books formed a central part of the Dutch Church, first and foremost because Protestantism was based on faith through the bible and its interpretation. That interpretation was in full swing. To understand the book collection properly it is important to know more about the history of the Dutch Church and its founders and what it is today.
