Dutch Days is a historical fiction book written by May Emery Hall and published in 1914. The story is set in the early 17th century in the Dutch colony of New Netherland, which is now present-day New York. The book follows the life of a young Dutch girl named Gretchen Van Rensselaer, who lives with her family on a large estate in the Hudson River Valley. As Gretchen grows up, she becomes increasingly interested in the political and social issues of her time. She begins to question the harsh treatment of Native Americans by the Dutch colonizers and becomes an advocate for their rights. Gretchen also becomes involved in the struggle for religious freedom, as the Dutch Reformed Church tries to exert its influence over the colony.Throughout the book, Gretchen faces many challenges and obstacles, including a dangerous journey to the trading post at Fort Orange, a conflict with her father over her desire to marry for love rather than for political advantage, and a confrontation with the powerful church leaders who seek to silence her voice.Dutch Days is a compelling and thought-provoking novel that explores themes of social justice, political power, and personal freedom. It offers a vivid and detailed portrayal of life in colonial America and provides a unique perspective on the Dutch influence on American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
