Standard work concerning a better understandig of the Acehnese by Snouck Hurgronje who coupled fundamental academic precision with "het polemisch karakter dat het betoog hier en daar heeft aangenomen", at least according to Gouvernements-Secretaris C.B. Nederburgh in a Bekendmaking before the title on a separately inserted leaf (total 3).
