Henry Hudson was an English explorer who made four voyages, three for the English and one for the Dutch. He was intent on finding a northwest passage to China so to that end he was lured to sail for the Dutch in exchange for the money and equipment needed. ( Ship, men, etc.) Hudson claimed England as his nation but would sail for others in an attempt to find a route to Asia.
