Yes!! He was great! Hmm -- the footnote said there that Holland granted the Anabaptists religious tolerance and they settled down to be productive members of society, which apparently Voltaire was all "what did I tell you?? religious tolerance is the best!!" and that inclined him to be pretty positive towards the Anabaptists :) (idk how much to trust the footnotes? though the few that I've checked with 18th C Prussian history gang because I questioned them have all been correct.)
