God redde Nederland by Jan Kuiper
"God redde Nederland" by Jan Kuiper is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work commemorates the centenary of the Dutch people's struggle for independence following the Napoleonic Wars, detailing the events from the annexation of Holland by France in 1810 to the restoration of the Dutch monarchy. The narrative encompasses significant historical figures and events that shaped the nation during this tumultuous period. The opening of the book
sets the stage for this retrospective, beginning with a reflection on the Dutch liberation from Napoleon's rule and the importance of acknowledging their historical struggles. Kuiper emphasizes the role of divine providence in the nation's survival and eventual resurgence, touching on themes of gratitude and national identity. He outlines the deteriorating conditions under French rule and the sentiments that led to the restoration of independence, thereby laying the groundwork for a detailed exploration of the social and military aspects of Dutch history during this era.
