WOOR1

William Of Orange The Silent Prince

William of Nassau (1533 - 1584) was only 11 years old when he inherited the principality of Orange, a small rich principality that is now part of France. Charles V, King of Spain and Lord of the Netherlands wanted him to be educated at his own court in Brussels. This biography, written for children, tells about the life of one of the greatest heroes of the Protestants. The prince who gave everything he had, including his life, deserves a thankful place in our hearts since we today still reap the fruits of his sacrifice. This is a story about nobility and courage in a sad time of religious persecution at the time of the Reformation in the Netherlands.
