The book De Atjeh Oorlog, by Paul van 't Veer, when published in 1969, was praised as a book that is very exciting, and scientifically justifiable about a war that shook the Dutch East Indies and the Netherlands, and even throughout Europe - the biggest war ever undertaken Netherlands.
Paul van 't Veer himself said: "I think they have been able to prove, that the war in Aceh is a deliberate provocation, that in fact people should talk about the four war in Aceh and not one, that the four rounds this time related to changes in the political and social in the Netherlands, and the Aceh war for the Dutch is the scene of the start and end of imperialism."
