This video is about Dutch contributions to the American Revolution primarily through their Caribbean territory, St. Eustatius and how their support resulted in the 4th Anglo Dutch War.

It is a great read. There are 100s of books written on the war from the American perspective but this book is told from mostly the European perspective including the Netherlands.
