| Summary | "De Prins en Johan de Witt" by P. J. Andriessen is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the formative years of Willem Hendrik, the Prince of Orange, exploring his relationships and the political dynamics of his time, particularly his connections with notable figures like Johan de Witt. At the start of the narrative, we are introduced to a ten-year-old Willem Hendrik living in Leiden shortly after the end of the Spanish wars. The opening describes his somber appearance and health struggles, as he is depicted sitting alone, lost in thought. It recounts his background, touching on his father's early death and the political turmoil surrounding his ascension. The chapter sets the stage for his exceptional upbringing, governed by ambitious women and political disputes, while weaving the complexities of his character as he navigates the challenges of being a young noble amidst impending responsibilities and expectations.
