Another less heralded novel: The Peaceable Kingdom by Jan de Harbor. About the Quaker movement’s origins and migration to America. The Dutch author is my uncle.

Correction thanks to spell check... The author I was referring to is Jan de Hartog, my distant uncle who was a heralded Dutch author and playwrite in the 1940-60s.

The Peaceable Kingdom

I inherited part of a library with a copy of your uncle's book.
Look forward to reading it.
