Baltic Connections (3 vols.)

Lennart Bes, M.A. in Indology, Leiden University, is employed at the National Archives of the Netherlands. He has published on South Indian history and the archives of the Dutch East India Company, including two archival guides to Dutch sources on South Asia.
Edda Frankot, Ph.D. (2004) in History and Law, University of Aberdeen, is a researcher at the Hanse Research Centre of the University of Groningen. She specialises in maritime, legal and urban history of Northern Europe in the Later Middle Ages.
Hanno Brand, Ph.D. (1996) in Medieval History, is a fellow at the Hanse Research Centre at Groningen University. He has published extensively on Leiden's urban elites, aspects of Urban History, the Burgundian Court (1419-1477) and on the relations between the Low Countries and the German Hanse.

" It is a real treasure trove, and should be welcomed by scholars across the world. Some of the national entries, for example, Estonia and Latvia, are truly ground-breaking, since they reveal a wealth of material hitherto either scattered to the four winds or left to sit in dusty cupboards"
David Kirby (University College, London)
"an extremely useful guide for all those wishing to prepare for archival research into the "Baltic connections"in any of the ten countries included."
Louis Sicking, International Journal of Maritime History, XXI,1 (June 2009), 365-6
